I heard that the eggs sometimes shrink a bit as they loose internal mass due to the yolk being used up in the later stages. The same is true for chicken eggs however we don't notice due to the firm shell.
Perhaps that might be it as with all the extra moisture you have added I doubt its dehydration.



If anything they will swell as the embryo is growing, when the egg has 'windows' or clear spots, this is the calcium being absorbed by the baby inside. The denting may even be from temp fluctuation ?

Glad the moss seems to be working.

temp fluctuations creates deformities - like 2 heads, 5 legs (in lizards) that sort of thing.

Well you should have consulted the Northern dictionary before coming up! It takes years to learn the language you know, Lewy's lived in Barnsley since he was 7 and he still doesn't get some of the slang
