    Candling Eggs

    Hi Everyone! I was wondering if anyone has a series of pictures showing different stages of incubation by candling every few weeks or so? I am looking to see how eggs that are candled on in the last few weeks of incubation look in particular.

    I have a clutch on day 46 and it seems like the embryos are so small. This is my first clutch, so maybe they grow a lot in the last few weeks and i'm just freaking out? All the eggs have great veins. There are a few that are very dimpled and most of them are still plump, but they are definitely getting softer and more leathery...

    Any pics would be great!

    You know mine look very similar in movement and size. I guess I just expected the babies to fill up more of the egg by now...

    They grow quite a bit in the last week or so before hatching.
