I am having no luck with this candling business. I've read everything I can and looked at loads of pics but I am not sure of what I'm seeing!
I'm on day 11 and have tried to candle twice. Last night I could see the air sacs clearly, and a blob in the middle and then another "empty" area near the bottom.
I've only done a few--I'm afraid of messing up the stability I've had.
No egg is weeping or stinky, but I do have one that looks like its shell is very pourous-
My question is-do I HAVE to candle my eggs? Can't I just leave them alone unless they start to look weepy or smell?
I'm afraid that since I'm not sure what I'm looking at I'll make the wrong decision and toss one that may actually be viable.
Please advise!!
Thanks~~Becky
