Hoping all is okay!

Have you candled them at all?

Hope I'm not clogging up the forum. Someone else just asked me the same.
I used a flashlight couple of times, but i don't think i really know what to look for

Did you see movement in any of the eggs when you candled? I use a bright flashlight as well, in a dark room or at nighttime.

No, i didn't see anything and am wondering if they even took.
How long can i have them out for candling?

Hello, Danie, and welcome to BYC. If the eggs are clear, they were infertile and did not develop. At 20 days they should be dark and filled by the chick.

As mentioned above, if you didn’t see anything inside the eggs, they are most likely infertile and not going to hatch.

Where did you get the eggs you are hatching currently?
