Day 14 = candling day

[Bluebelle7]

Finally! my candling tool arrived and I candled 6 of my eggs, but all I could see is black, no light coming through except the bubble on the end. After doing six eggs I decided to stop, and have a look for pics what they should look like. Also I checked my newly laid eggs and they glow; so the torch is working. Am I right to think the eggs are full of little babies, and if anything, they may hatch earlier than another week? OMG! I have to rush out and get some feed for them. I was going to do that sort of shopping next week.

This is the cheap, very cheap torch I bought

Depending on the eggs some are very hard to see through
Are you candling through the air cell end ?
Whet colour are your chicken eggs ?

The eggs are white d'Uccles eggs, smaller than my other eggs. I turned them around to look at all different angles.

Are you candling them in a completely dark room? Is it possible for you to take some pictures?

Can you post clear pictures of the eggs while you are candling them.
Make sure you're shining the light into the fat end of the egg too.
