I noticed it too but didn't say anything because I figured you might have gotten her permission. ....I did the same thing...not on here, but has a pic on my desktop...not Vicky's..I can't remmeber where I got it from...but I just deleted it 'cause I realized I hadn't asked permission either..
It was of two sebs in a driveway (gravel) and they had their heads in their wings......I just used it for prettyness on my home computer...but its gone now

anyway...her name is Vicky and You can see her pics at

Miss prissy u used a surefire g2 to candle it looks like u wrapped the end with something. What? Will it work with maran eggs? I bought the extra bright bulb. I love that flashlight.

 

[MissPrissy]

I don't know any candling that can see in marans eggs.

I wrap the tip in several layers of flannel with a tiny hole in the center.

Could I just use the g2 no wrap? Too much heat?

 

[MissPrissy]

I wrap the tip so the light can be directed into the egg. Unwrapped the light leaks and you have a greater chance of clunking an egg and breaking it.

Thanks Whippet, Im glad you liked my photos there are a lot more on my flickr album. Since just this week I had an issue with somone on ebay using one of my blue egg photos to sell their eggs, Im a lil sensitive about copyright issues..... see this thread.

Id recomend you use a different photo for ya avi.

I dont want to get TOO off topic from Mss Prissys thread. So let me just say that I use the COOL LITE egg candler on marans (and all my eggs) and it does a decent job on the dark brown and dark blue eggs! You cant see early development, but you can tell if an egg is progressing or not. I just looked and McMurray carries it.
