I have...once. To me it wasn't any more accurate than candling. But it might have just been me.....
I tried it once too and It could have been me also. I think candleing would be better, but i'm not that good with it either.

I only know the float test to see if eggs are fresh to eat or not. It has always worked for me.

this past summer my broody was sitting on 3 brahma eggs that i weren't sure about, well when i did the float test they showed viable, isn't that when they float? but they weren't even fertile.

well, i candled them and they were sloshy again like the other 3, one has a darker shadow on the narrow end, thought i'd give them till wednesday, under Cindylou, and let flo raise the little one without worrying about the other eggs- when i first got the eggs flo was the only broody and couldn't cover them all so maybe some got cold?
