How do I candle eggs?


Answers:
Take a fertilized egg that has either been incubated or has been under a sitting hen for 5-7 days and go into a dark room with a flashlight.
Hold the flashlight to the egg and if the egg has something going on inside you will see blood vessels and possibly the beginnings of an embryo.
After candling the egg,be sure to put it back in the incubator or under the sitting hen and let the growing process continue.
In a dark room hold a flash light up to your eggs. You will be able to see a body or not.
This website has excellent information on candling.
