Its day 5. If I candle now, will I see the veins if the chicks are growing. Is it too soon? And does anybody know about candling duck eggs?

Yes you should see veining and what would you like to know about duck eggs.

 

[CrazyChickLady7]

When does the veining become obvious? Since they have a longer incubation, wouldn't it be longer before you can see them?

Great info! I just put about 60 eggs in the hatcher only lost 3 during the first 18 days. This helped me tremendously.

Wonderful. Good luck with hatch!

Chicken eggs that are light colored should show veining on day 5.

For the duck eggs, I would candle around day 10.

Starting at Day 5. You may have to look closely and some may not show yet but by day 8 or so, most definitely.
