ID Morph inside Eggs by Candling! (Video)

[Ash]

I candled my het pied x het pied clutch a few days ago and noticed that on one egg in particular, I could very plainly see a little reduced normal pattern through the shell.

The snake in the egg that is standing up seems to be a little bit patchy-looking and I would bet that there's a pied in there, although it's very difficult to see it in the video.

Watch in HD if you have the patience. Thanks for looking!

I was going to ask the exact same question. Loved the video!

Thankies It's driving me nuts that I can't tell for certain which ones are pieds. It's so hard to leave them alone.

When I was candling mine, you could spot lines (rather than alien heads and normal striping) and the white parts of pieds give off a pink glow in the egg rather than the normal dark coloration while candling.

This was one of my pied eggs at day 43:


And this was the normal in the clutch also at day 43:



Look for the pink glow, for stripes and for unusual pattern breaks when you're candling. Good luck! I hope you hatch out a few pieds!
