I hope someone answers because I would love to know, too. I think you really can't candle them very well. Just hope for the best. Or get a very, very bright light.

You have to be careful if you try using very bright lights the heat can damage the eggs. Brinsea has a nice candler that would work for these though. http://www.brinsea.com/products/egglume.html

I made my candler out of a shop lamp with a 65 watt mini halogen bulb. I lined the inside if the cardboard with foil. Works great.
