Last night Cam and I candled our duck eggs.
Candling is when you use a flashlight to penetrate the shell to look at the inside of the egg.
The first three eggs we checked didn't show any signs of development.
My heart sank with each "dead" egg we picked up.
And then, there was life!
Six of our eighteen eggs have teeny-tiny embryos inside of them.
While I am disappointed that more didn't develop, I am so excited to have these six little signs of life!
Grow babies, grow!
