I did not offend you did I? It is hard to tell with text like this. Sorry if I did. I like the idea of of the different colored lights. Perhaps a main point was missed--You Can Look up the Kelvin numbers of LED lights and pick,one that is yellow and then you can go look at what you have or...

The led that is used in the Brinsea high intensity ova view is white to yellow: Delaware egg: Pita Pinta egg I do not recommend using flashlights but buying a real candler. They use better LED Technology. This is the color spectrum by Kelvin for lED bulbs:

The light color post assumes that the led bulbs in LEDs is blue. Modern LEDs are measured in Kelvin numbers and go from yellow to blue for the white light spectrum. If you want to candle a marans egg, buy a real candler. Brinsea sells one and I can see into very dark eggs with it. The High...

Nice Idea! First Posts can only be edited for about 6 weeks and then that post closes off. It may be possible to imbed a google doc--Updating the Google Doc should allow continued editing by updating the embedded Document.

The new 7 year tag is very cool!

Thanks! I need a new one. The one I have been using for several years has lost some water....

It is great to see this tread getting members that have been here for a long time with little posting to start talking to us! Thank You!

It is great to have you posting here!

You start seeing things within three days when you crack them open. either the temps were way off or the eggs were not fertile.

98.5 to 100.5 are good incubation temps. A lot actually like incubating at 100. (That would be me).

That is what is so great about it!

Most DIY cooler incubators use a thermostat from a water heater so they do use a thermostat.

McMurray sells a Mini Dome incubator. It does not have a thermostat. Temperature is adjusted by moving the light bulb towards and away from the eggs. Both the heat pad and the light bulb would require hands on work for sure!

The egg was dead? That would be the day that something killed it, likely a heat spike. Yes, start over.

Keep the experiment going!

I used two candlers. The bottom one is a Brinsea high intensity ovaview. The top one is from incubator warehouse. http://www.brinsea.com/products/egglume.html

The video is Ready! Same line of Dels that are hatching here on Day 12(New Heritage Dels form Kathyinmo):

This is a candling picture of a New Heritage Delaware egg on Day 12. I took the picture tonight along with a video. I will post the video when it is ready on Vimeo. The Dark spot in the middle is the chick. You can see some of the veins st the bottom very easily.

That works well! Some people have nose problems and have others smell for them.

Make sure to use the sniff test then. I have used this before.
