Tomorrow is day 16 on the ones in the bator so I am only about three days from lock down. I believe the ones she is sitting are about a week behind. I don't see any movement yet. Is that normal or should they be rockin' n rollin'?

That's the issue. Thick brown shells. I can see growth in all but it's pretty hazy and these old eyes are having a little trouble making out details. Saw that duck video and that was amazing!! Gonna have to configure a better candler for the next time around.

Last hatch I had some dark marans eggs. I used an old slide projector to candle and it worked great. Until it burned out. Then I got a good LED flashlight - like 150 lumens for around $15, and used electric tape and a piece of PVC pipe to make the lens smaller. That works really well but a couple of the very darkest eggs I could only see movement right against the air cell. I've seen 200+ lumens lights but didn't want to spend the money. The nice thing about the high lumens lights - they're LED so they don't get hot. This hatch is faverolles so I can see really easy into these.

Nice pics Hokankai!!! As usual

Well, apparently my AM's in the bator decided May wasn't the right month for them... So, on to June! Too bad I have 11 more eggs that need to go to lockdown tomorrow night, and 8 on the 3rd and 13 on the 7th... Plus adding a bunch in tomorrow for a June 21st hatch!

Oh and my 3 broody's will have hatches this month too... Don't remember how many each have, I think 8, 6, & 6.

Probably need to break down and buy a better led flashlight that what I have. I am just so darn close to the end here I'm getting nervous. First timer.
