    So clucking good they
    won't want to share

    Step 1: Dark environment
    Use the lamp in a dark room for the clearest view inside the egg.

    Step 2: Turn on the lamp
    Insert batteries and switch on. The LED provides bright light with minimal heat.

    Step 3: Position the egg
    Hold the egg gently and place the wider end (air sac) against the light.

    Step 4: Check development
    Look for veins, movement, or a dark embryo to confirm progress.

    Step 5: Candle at key stages
    Best done around days 7, 14, and 18 of incubation.

    Step 6: Handle with care
    Avoid over-handling and return eggs promptly to maintain temperature.

    Tip: With practice, candling becomes quicker and helps improve hatch success.
