Day 7 candle and I've got movement! YAAH!

[14 chickens & counting]

It's day 7 and we candled our 16 eggs and we have movement in most!

It is so neat to see this! (My son thought it was disturbing

). Everyone on here has been so helpful and reassuring for this newbie!

What kind of rooster is in your avatar? Is it yours?

I have one that looks VERY similar and have no clue what it is. I always thought it was a mutt. Mine is full size, not a bantam.

i thought EE's were bearded..? he looks to be salmon colored...

anyways...




i just candled a couple of days ago, and it was a bit disturbing when i candled the first one... i never knew what to expect really and it totally blew my mind... LOL... since i'm a newb, i don't know the difference or really know what to look for... i just saw some things floating in there... so i figured they were doing aight...


but this is your thread...

Did you see the candling information on this site? Very good info. I really knew something was going on when I saw the veins!

Yes...that HANDSOME man is mine

I thought I had a Golden Duckwing Welsummer. But an experienced chicken person on here told me his colors were off. He's some kinda mix. Here is the pic I got off the internet of the GDW...

and here is mine...

Ours do look alike...mine is full sized too!

i read as much as i could... but i still saw some stuff that isn't on threads or pictures... well, i guess it's different in person... there were some that had like, veins all the way around the egg, but not as much as others on the rack... so i just left them, i'll candle them later on and see if they are growing or not...
