Important: Candling Question and Nest-Chick-Eggs Question

[Kat's Silly Chickens]

I was correct that I had movement in the eggs when I candled them. 1 of the Mille Fleur hatched between midnight and morning, but it ended up out from under mom and didn't make it.

I want Mille Fleur chicks, why can't I at least get 1 to hatch and survive?

I found a box to use for candling.
Checked to make sure it would work, tested on an unfertile egg from my Barred Rocks.
I can candle the eggs in the bator this coming weekend...

Waiting, waiting, waiting...
