Man, I tried candling them with a cup (with a hole in one end) and a maglite and I am so stumped at what everyone says I SHOULD see! I got 12 the last shipment. Candled them right away and saw NOTHING...candled them about 6 days later and half of them were clear...like pure egg white?

The other 1/2 had dark ends and a clear spot on the more narrow tip of the egg, and ONE looked like it had a dark side with some darker veins coming out of one side and "felt" denser than the rest. I really thought that was going to be the ONE, but after 25 days, I gave up. And, like a surgeon in emergency room, I called it.

BUT, I never saw "bubbles" when I candled, or the "sac" (sp?) or "bullseye", etc.

Thanks,
Shannon
