    Did she slug out? :( + candling Qs

I suck at candling gecko eggs (usually just wait for them start to degrade) and chicken eggs I'm questionable at best lol. They were laid Tues if I candle them today will it be fairly obvious whats going on? The anticaaaa


    ...pation is killing me. :/

    Sorry to say, but they look like slugs to me.
    Candling isn't too difficult. Turn off the lights and put a flash light to the eggs. If there are veins, then the eggs are fertile. Nothing, then infertile.

    ugh. so disappointmented. I candled them and some looked like a couple had globs of dark stuff but no blood vessels. I guess variation in egg shell thickness?
