Lovemychooks Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 I candled the eggs last night and found that there was one egg which I think is fine but not sure. Wondered if anyone could help. I think it's a good egg but looking at the photos on the post "Day 6 and I've just candled my eggs", i'm beginning to wonder now. The egg had the spidery veins but half the egg was light. Is this normal ? I need to check the rest of the eggs tonight......i'm sooooooooo excited but got to wait until 25th August before they hatch !

meezers Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 Veins sound good but I've only candled once ( well, actually about 5 times in one hatch ) so an expert would be better able to reassure you. I will say that I wasn't sure about any of my eggs at day 7, wasn't until day 10 I knew 4 were fertile, so don't be disheartened yet.

craftyhunnypie Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 Hi - it sounds good. Veins are a sure sign that something is going on. The clear area was probably the air sac. Emma.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
