Culled eggs:
Cracked, misshapen or otherwise
not likely to hatch.
Infertile eggs:
Determined to have no germ. Originally
infertile. These eggs are clear during candling and show
no evidence of blood or embryo development.
Early dead:
Embryos died during the first
quarter of incubation. Some of these can be detected and
removed during candling. These eggs would be fertile and
could show a dead early embryo, show no development, development
but no blood, or a blood ring.
Middle dead:
Embryos died after the "early"
period but before transfer.

Late dead:
Embryos died during the hatch
phase of incubation.
Malformed:

Stages in chick embryo development
 Chick embryos that have been incubated for approximately 48, 72 and 96 hours after fertilization will be available for you to examine. However, specimens of similar ages post-fertilization may show a wide variation of maturation stages. The incubation times provide only an estimation of how far development of the embryo will have progressed. The temperature of incubation (which may be different among eggs depending on their locations within the incubator), as well as the rate of growth of the individual embryo itself will affect the overall .....
