This is a good idea because the light from the mobile phone is very bright. I just use a very bright LED torch. They are great. But when I candle my egg's I always can see the embyro and plenty of red veins . Thanks for sharing your video and good luck on your hatching 👍
Mam please tell me what is the temprature and humidity velues for this type of Incubator . i am have coctail eggs but my last 8 eggs gone unhatched because my female cocktail dose not sit on on or 8 eggs . i hope please tell me.
Thank you Have a hen sitting Others laying eggs all around her by accident got one of her eggs with chicken I felt so bad Just left all the extra eggs over flowing up around her This will help so much
@@JodBronson i know this was 2 years ago lol but you also run the risk of the egg exploding so remove them straight away so you don't contaminate the rest of your eggs
@@davenewton9529 - You are 100% correct, if the temperature in the incubator is high enough. Unfortunately, in an incubator is only about 99.5F Degree at their highest + humidity too.
I'm guessing the two with the visible air sack didn't hatch being so close to hatch day and the solid one did hatch. Thanks for the setup video. Did you leave it at 3 degrees turn angle? I have the same machine and I'll be using banty eggs.
hi! i know this video was posted ages ago haha but i just found an egg in my garden and really want to help- i tried this test and i can see glowing lines around the egg but i can’t see a larger mass where an embryo would be- has it died? any help would be really appreciated. Thanks ❤️
Heyo sorry for the late reply. If you can see glowing red lines then they are likely to be the embryo starting to develop as the veins grow first, before the embryo becomes particularly solid. It sounds like it could be incubated and still hatch if you found it before it had time to chill for too long. Good luck!
fadi yako you would need a mini incubator which you can make yourself with a heat source (your lamp ) and Relative Humidity so you would need to have a thermometer
Hey Vida! It depends a little on how confident you are, you should be able to see clear development by day 8 for most species and breeds but that doesn’t mean the eggs won’t stop developing later on. These days I tend to just leave all the eggs in the incubator until about 4 days before hatch, then candle them very quickly (prolonged light exposure can damage the eye at this stage) and just remove the clear ones. All other eggs get their chance to hatch.
hi! i found an abandoned egg outside of my house and i’m not too sure what to do, there isn’t anywhere i can take it and none of the wildland places nearby have returned my calls. in the meantime, i was wondering if i could incubate the egg by wrapping it in a heating pad? i don’t have an incubator, but after candling it i can see it’s alive and i don’t know how else to keep it warm. thank you! :)
Hey Katarina! You could certainly try but it wouldn’t be easy. You would need a good thermometer and to keep the egg between about 35 and 38 degrees C for it to have any chance of developing properly, and that would be the challenge, keeping it consistently warm. and to turn it every few hours of course. And should it hatch the chick, and depending on species, it would need to be fed every hour or so for a few weeks. But how exciting! Good luck with your endeavour. Let us know what you decide and how it goes!
Hey! Depends on the dots. If you have a ring of reddish or brownish dots around the middle of the egg then the embryo has likely died quite early in development. If it's a big dot in the middle with a few around the edge then it could be the growing embryo. To be honest, candling can be a bit ambiguous, so these days I tend to only candle a few days before hatch day and remove any that are completely clear and were infertile to begin with. Everything else gets its chance to hatch.
Hello Piyar Ali! It is impossible to tell if eggs are fertile before you start to incubate them, but so long as the hens have been with a cockerel there is a good chance they will be. All you can do is start incubating them and candle them to see if an embryo is growing inside.
Hello! I would consider candling it, even if it's only a couple of days in the incubator. It could have a hairline crack and be leaking. Candling would show this up nice and clearly, if it is cracked it wont hatch i'm afraid. If it's not cracked try cleaning it with warm water (no soap) and hopefully it will stay clean. good luck!

I use my cell phone to cancel all my eggs it's actually works pretty darn good you can see that little spot in the fertilized eggs on maybe 2 days old
This is the most informative video I have watched yet!
Thank you!
We have game hens! Very hard n thick shells! Is this still good for checking them?
Wow,amazing ,could see the chicks move inside the egg.Thanks a lot
Can one use anything else, but clay?
Mam please tell me what is the temprature and humidity velues for this type of Incubator . i am have coctail eggs but my last 8 eggs gone unhatched because my female cocktail dose not sit on on or 8 eggs . i hope please tell me.
Thanks. The clay trick really is helpful to direct the bright light only thru the egg.
i thogh it was mozzerela cheese
Had no idea how to do this thank you
Thank you
Have a hen sitting
Others laying eggs all around her by accident got one of her eggs with chicken
I felt so bad
Just left all the extra eggs over flowing up around her
This will help so much
I see a head in mine and it’s curled up with veins does that mean it’s close to hatching
Yes
OMG ME TOO IM SO HAPPY
Probably it will hatch
Syth jibrilster ofcourse in 1 or 2 days
Very helpful!!!Thank you!
Thank you for this awesome solution!
Can you pls answer this question if an clear egg is in the incubator would it get rotten because of the heat
Yes, through time if you leave it there long enough.

P🎉🎉🎐
the egg cooked lol
Thank you for posting. What kind of incubator did you use?
Hello! The brinsea ‘mini advance’ (the old model) they are a bit pricier than some other brands but I have found them to be wonderfully reliable.
Thank you for responding back. I appreciate it very much.

Thanks for the video. Very useful information
your accent seems like the perfect accent to speak english . :)
I agree
hi When a female dies, can I put her eggs under a lamp and hatch?
fadi yako you would need a mini incubator which you can make yourself with a heat source (your lamp ) and Relative Humidity so you would need to have a thermometer
Can you give us an update??? I really want a Little chick!! And maybe care tips?
One update video on the way...... and care tips soon to follow with next years batch of chickies.
Thank you so much for this video 😊
After how many days should u cradle them
wow. amazing. Can you tell me please how many day I need to incubate eggs before candeling? 5-10 days?
Hey Vida! It depends a little on how confident you are, you should be able to see clear development by day 8 for most species and breeds but that doesn’t mean the eggs won’t stop developing later on.

7 days

Did the fertile eggs become Fred & Bob? Keep up the great work 👍🏻
amazing..iam from indonesia
Oh nice
What does it mean if your egg has dots in the shell

Thank you so much!! for this vid....
I tried this with an iPhone 8. Didn’t work at all. Wouldn’t light up the eggs at all
Cool thank you.
I thought you are supposed to keep the pointy side down.
We can use a normal torch 🤔
I am keeping a baby chick in my grandmas apartment and I am extremely worried and excited
What is your name mam
Hello
My name is Piyar Ali.
Before haetching how I cheek eggs fertile or not plz help me

Clay trick v helpful
Thankyou
Same here. Who cares about fancy lightd😂
i. want. a. egg
I use it
My egg has got gooey liquid stuff on the egg
