finches are starting again with the eggs.(i candled them.)
2 of the zebras are positive fertile,they are red inside with red bloodlines and one has a very small embryo:) a 3rd one i am unsure about because it seems red but with no lines.red band in middle like a belt line.i left them under the zebra hen. the societies 2 eggs and 2 zebra eggs i am very unsure of.all the eggs show no reddness,no blood lines,and no embryo.just a dark patch and a yellow haze in them.at first glance the societies two are pinkish while the zebras are dark/white.i could be wrong so i though to leave them under the society hen for a few days,even a week. it has been 8 days since the first was laid on the zebra finches.the societies about 3-4 days. zebra finch has a total clutch of 6 as of today. society has a clutch of 2. summary questions- the other two zebra eggs-are they the last laid?why are they yellow though? what do they look like when fist laid.(candled) what should i do with the 4 supposed unfertile ones.

When first laid they will look yellow, just like an unfertilized one. They need 5 days of incubation to tell if they are fertile or not.
Infertile eggs, keep them in the nest, they provide support for chicks and retain heat.
