    Candling dark brown eggs

    I have candled eggs many times from canaries, ducks, chickens, and ostriches but I cannot see through the dark Maran eggs I currently have. Does anyone have a suggestion? I even obtained a bright LED flashlight but did not work.

    My Mille Fleur had no problem with the bigger girls. She rulled the roost even with the Bramas and Jersy Giants.

    I open the coop lid and she never moves so do you think I could lift the igloo top and not bother her?

    If she stops, I guess I can put them under a heat lamp or in an incubator. I would just like her to raise them.

    I have a baby chick d'Uccle I am raising in my canary breeding cage. I love this breed. My best pet was a d'Uccle hen I called Mama because she raised 6 Sptiz. Whenever I walked outside she would run to me and jump in my arms. My Maran "Cocoa" and her would always see who could get in my arms or...
