Why did I do it?

Ok...i know better than to candle on day 3. I promised I wouldn't candle til day 7 or so. But here I am on day 3 and I candled a few. I have always been able to see something on day 3 on eggs this light. I couldn't see anything. I'm freaking out now. This is why I shouldn't have looked.

Well, you can agonize and re candle on day 7. You do know that eggs which 'appear' clear on day 3 can be developing, right?

They will be fine. I have found that it is best not to candle until day 15.

Hi

I had two clear eggs in the last hatch one I pulled early one I left. They looked identical when I took the first one out. I left the other one because it was just so pretty. It hatched on day 21

. I threw away a good egg

I know it can appear clear at Day 3 even if its fine. BUT...im an insane paranoid person!!!!

lol...i just have a hatching problem. I also have a candling problem.

I candled 29 eggs on day 3 and didn't see much. But today, on day 5..... most appear to be developing

I wont celebrate to much yet. They are shipped eggs and I will surely have some quitters. I think most of us addicts are a lot alike.
I want to know NOW

that my eggs are happy and growing and that they are ALL going to hatch.....right?
