Candeling

[Dirty Dozen]

I just set 28 silkie eggs in the bator. 1st time for that many...almost scary! What is the BEST day to candle them? Do I take them all out at once rather than constantly opening top for each one? When I use a broodie I just reach underneath but this is ALOT & don't want to constantly candle them like I usually do. Also, I'm not good at telling quitters...I just compare them! Thanx!

just take one and see and put it back and take another and so on.

in the third days (like mine now) you can even see bright nice beauty red vein.

but to ensure and see better "mark of life" then just candle it on 7th days.

7 days is best, if you go to the BYC HOME...page....look for LEARNING CENTER...and then EGG CANDLING...it has pictures of what you should be looking for.
