Candling eggs

[Frozen Feathers]

Does anyone know where I can find pictures of candling egg stages to try and determine when my silkies are going to hatch

. I candled them tonight and looks like they are pretty far along, I *think* not more then a week left. Of course I don't really know because they are under Silky hens and not in an incubator. Thanks!!
