Kinda like I did when I came in this afternoon but those posts were actually about chicken related stuff. I told you guys I have ADHD & it very easy for me to wander.

Also I can't contribute anything about egg candling. I used a flash light & still did not understand what I was looking at. I put them back under the hen & hoped for the best. LOL

Well... 10 Dwarfs set... 9 are doing great... one looks started and dead. 3 Japanese, one is shaken (dead), another is good, and the last one is a early death (poop on my hopes of a trio) ..... I set a bantam Del egg for the heck of it, too early to tell because I snuck it in a day later... same with a bantam white wyandotte egg. Tomarrow I'll check those.


Little... it's super easy IF you get the light in the right position. It's all in the angle (no dirty jokes, please)

Darn!

Were you thinking of me when you asked for no dirty jokes?

Darn!

I knew I had to cut you off at the pass! lol

Seriously... I should start a candling school. LMAO!!! Lesson 1: Picking the right light. Lesson 2: Correct handling of your light. Lesson 3: Stages of life (and death) in a egg

That will be a flat fee of $80, cost includes candler and chicks.

1. Right light- check- Streamlight Stinger LED
2. Handling-check- Husband's large hand cupped under egg
3. Stages of life-check- Googled on laptop

Where did I go wrong?
