Day 6 candleing question

[bryan8]

I have 22 eggs in the bator, and tonight at 8pm or so it will be a full day 6.

I couldn't wait so I candled them all. All 22 have what looks like red spiderwebs (veins?) coming to a red ball with a black dot in it. The red ball moves if you move the egg.

Is this good? All 22 look like this so im hoping its a good sign !

Also have 22 coturnix eggs in another incubator on day 8 but I cant see a darn thing through the eggs.

Yup! That's what you want to see! The black dot is the chicks eye! Here is a day by day candeling reference.

Corturnix eggs can be hard to candle. Some of mine I can see okay with, others nothing. With those I just wait until 2 weeks has passed. If the egg shines blue all the way through then they are empty.
