HELP: Photos of eggs being candled

[Parson's Wife]

I am new to incubating. I would like to make this post available, first to help me...secondly to help others....
Please post any pictures you have of eggs being candled and list the day you were on...also the type of chicken...
and the color of the egg...along with any other pertinent information you have.

I am on day 13, with silkies...light and darker brown eggs.
also if you know of any websites with good how-to's and photos of eggs being candled...

edited to add...make them dial up friendly for those folks with dial-up.

I did a search and found this:
https://www.backyardchickens.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=23621
I know I looked at it when it was first posted but I'm pretty sure it took a while to load as I'm dial-up too. But it was good.
Good luck!

Thank you!
I came across another website in my latest hunt...
http://shilala.homestead.com/candling.html

If that addy doesn't take you there...just type in the shilala homestead...see if that will call it up for you...
Still curious about blood rings, how long to leave them in...not certain what I'm looking at....

Very helpful candling info. They have lots of pictures, and videos.

The darker your room and brighter your flashlight the better.

Nifty on here had a progressive CANDLling picture group that was helpful to me in the beginning. I don't throw eggs out till day 14 if I am unsure. by then you can see the chicks moving well and there will be a bigger aircell
