question on candling?

[farmer_fred]

I am hatching turkeys, the pamplet says 27 days to hatch, I counted day 1 as zero and prediced 5-22 as day of first hatch. I cannot take the turner out during the night, I usually get home form work about 12:30 AM I will take the turner out before going to work monday, I have the bator near a window, it stays rather dark with the way my window shades are and there is no chance of sunshine hitting the top of the bator, the end of the house is next to a creek and a hill. only 6 will not hatch if I counted right, but going to wait a couple of days to re-candle, if not dark by then, out they come, ever so carefully not to break in my hands, could be a huge amout of sulfur from a un-furtilzed egg to blow on me. picking up chick feed monday on my way to work to feed them, yes, counting my chincks before they hatch, 50 LBS should be enough to feed them.

I candled the eggs earlier today and marked them with a red marker, here is the only picture in the dark that would take cearly, the red marked ones are given until sunday to be darker or be taken out. oddly, some that were dark earlier became lighter oddly later when I took the PIC.
