What about Coturnix eggs? Is it hard to candle those? I don't have a fancy "candler" gonna have to use a flashlight or something...

Sorry, but it is not possible to see much of anything. You can see a chick forming if there is a big dark mass, but you can't see any details at all. The ones that don't develop have a greenish glow.

It is possible to see through coturnix eggs in a really dark room and a candler. I have done it and you can see some veins under the air cell.
