Was worried, but now I am thrilled!!!

Yes, my name is Shannon and I am addicted to candling....*sigh*

Anyway...I checked them the other day and was having a hard time seeing any movement (had seen clear movement at day 4)

Then my hubby suggested I change the batteries in the flashlight...OH MY GOODNESS!!! We saw chicks, and tons of veins and LOTS of movements...we even think we saw a little chicken foot...is that possible on Day 8???

5 of the 8 are growing...3...we just see yolk, but I haven't the nerve to toss them yet...will on Day 14.

*breathing a sign of relief*
