Ok I had 2 eggs laid at the same time and they looked great the entire time in the incubator well on the 21st of may my first egg hatched at 2 am well my concern is the second one looked great as well then the first hatched and the second completely turned from great to not so good. it is now the 23 still no baby and it dented big time on one side and it turned transparent on the side that dented and u can see somewhat inside it now. u see something in it but cant tell if it is moving or looks good. i dont know if its normal or if it died some how. it was laid 53 days ago and it is incubated for a female at 82 degrees. what do i do? if its dying can i save it or is it normal that one can hatch and other take 2 or so more days ???

It can take 2 or more days and I have had healthy babies come out of terrible looking eggs so it's wise to leave it for awhile and see what happens.

Acpart is right, I have had babies come out of the worse looking eggs. I think the transparentcy that you see is called a window, I have had those as well with my eggs. It is something that can happen before the egg hatches. Let us know how it turns out. Bet your gonna have a new baby before the days end.

it didnt make it i checked on it today and it was completely molded and smashed i dont know what was wrong the part that was transparent was open and u could see the side of the baby it looked like a normal but i dont know what was wrong unless when the first hatched it some how cut the other egg or something with a nail trying to get out or what but i feel like i just lost a baby or something im so sad...

I'm sorry it didn't work out. Sometimes they die just before hatching. Last season I had 2 die just out of the egg and don't know why. I hope the next experience is better.
