hiya people i have just checked on my eggs and one is round with a nipple type shape on the side? i remember reading about this once before but cant find the website  is this good or bad? im guessin its bad as the eggs have been incubating at 81 C for 4 weeks so it wouldnt be a sign of hatching 
any help would be greatly appreciated thanx stu |

Not bad not good just is 
Dont worry so much.
An infertile egg will feel soft and squidgy while a fertile egg will be solid and feel like a stale marsh mellow (spelling?)

If the eggs were fertile to start with, they wont just not be fertile will they 
So why candle them ?
It isnt going to change anything is it ?
If you keep touching them it isnt going to do the eggs any good !!!
Leave them alone and wait and see .... just imagine that they are xmas prezzies that you cant touch until the 56th day

Nearly everyone worries the first few times
I've got about 60+ eggs of different species at the moment .... if they hatch ..great .... if they dont ... there isnt a lot i can do about it so i dont worry
