    I keep seeing different posts on candling but, I'm really not sure when is the best time to candle? The eggs have been in the incubator since Wednesday(4 days). When should I candle?... I hope these eggs hatch right.. I had some of them in the house under a warm light for about a week before incubating. And some of the eggs were in the nest approx a week before that.. Back to my main ?, "When" is best to candle the eggs? Thanks, Julie
