I dont know if anyone is uo but we nust candled and nailed it! Most eggs had veins(though we couldnt see a lot of them cuz brown eggs) and the aircells were for the most part the size they should be. Some were a little small though. We are ready for next candle!!

Great job I love candling too ! Even tho I am still a real noob!
 
If a chick has one leg straight out behind/side it is that splayed leg? Do I tie the legs together? This chick is over a week old and I have not seen this.
@Sally Sunshine
Hi Daxigait! I'm not sure of the answer to this. The one that I had like that, I hobbled it's legs and it just lay there, didn't want to get up.. I could stand it up and it would waddle around, then fall over and lay there. But,it did seem to help bring that leg in. Problem was there was WAY more wrong with this chick then just it's leg, so I ended up culling it after it appeared it had a stroke of some sort.

The video I saw of someone hobbling a chick like that used a tiny bit of a drinking straw and a tiny rubber band. Just enough of the straw to fit between the legs, then feed the rubber band through the straw, hooked one loop on one leg and the other hood on the other leg with the straw inbetween. That seemed like it would work great. I didn't have any straws or rubber bands, so I used band aids.

Good luck!

I hope somene with more experience answers you!
