Awesome! I'm glad they're taking care of it for you!

Yup seems to be working now but they w
Said they would send one anyways.

So far so good.
Now I am on day four for eggs i guess I should try to candle soon. But have never done it.

So a question on candleing as I am new , I have images from online showing what I am looking for , I set the eggs Sunday when should I start looking to actually see something. The manual and online seems to say day 7.

What are your thoughts

I like to start candling day 4, but if there are any I don’t see anything in I’ll still wait until day 7 or so before throwing them out. It depends on how bright of a light you have and what color eggs as to weather you’ll actually be able to see anything that early. Day 7 development will be pretty clear if you can wait until then though.

Awesome thanks , I'll go candle tonight the nurture right has the built in candle light.

I may have unfertilized eggs mixed in i don't know. Roosters were available for all the eggs but I guess its up to the girls to make the chicks.

Hopefully some of these produce chicks.

Here are pics of the candling just now I hope some of these are fertile the roosters had free reign on the girls and I waited to save eggs about a week after they started.

It helps to put a dark cardstock or something similar over the nr360 candler and just cut a hole the size of the light. This prevents so much bleed through of the light through the white plastic and will make it easier for you to see. The darker the room and brighter the light, the easier to see development.

Ok ill try that. Do any of these look viable or should I not worry until after sun which is a week.

It's possible, I see a shadowy area in some of them but it's hard to say from the images.
