Candling-When Should I expect to see something?

I find that my green and blue eggs are the hardest to make out veining . They are just really dark inside even at day 7 . I 'm candling with 150 lumens so it's a brite light LOL . Just saying , dont worry or get frustrated if you cant see to much detail on the green and blue's. For me they look like a big dark blob for most of the 18 days. I was just like you my first hatch lol

. I couldn't wait till day 7 holy crap that seem"s like forever when your counting the HRs

. Trust me it gets better , But you will probably get hooked on hatching Its totally addicting . I just checked my greens and like I said big dark blob at 8 days all others even my dark browns showing lots of veining. Good luck with your hatch . I started a good friday setting thread , and i just added to my incubator 12 BCM ,and 11 mixes yesterday . You are welcome to join us if you like .

Oh thanks! That makes me feel a lot better and good to know. I'm hoping to be able to see something at day 8, but if not I'll just trust mama's instinct. I'll have to check our your thread, thanks!

When do you pull out ay that look clear? I want to give them plenty of time, but when is long enough.

By day 15-16 you should be ok with throwing out any eggs candling clear.

Good luck with your hatch!
