Thanks for this great advice. I've had chickens for about 11 months and 1 just went broody on me. She's sitting on at least 1 egg (my husband thinks he saw 2) and I tried to candle it without any luck...I'm new to that too. I was going to try to candle again in a few days because I don't think I did it right, but your advice will give me at least 1 more week before I toss the egg. I probably would have been tempted to toss it in a few days vs a week. I LOVE this thread too BTW, because of all the pictures, it really helped me understand what to look for with a break down of days. Better than anything I've googled so far.
