Why Candle Your Eggs?

Free up incubator space
Remove infertile and early dead eggs so they stop taking up valuable setter space.
Protect healthy eggs
Reduce the risk of rotten eggs bursting and contaminating the rest of the batch.
Catch defects early
Spot cracked shells, blood spots and other faults before setting or packing.
Track fertility
Monitor fertility rates to keep an eye on flock health and breeding performance.
Hatch more chicks
Better candling means better hatchability and more chicks from every batch.

How It Works

1

Load
Place up to 150 eggs in a standard setter tray.

2

Slide in
Slide the tray into the candler on the guide rails.

3

Light up
Close the curtains and light shines up through every egg.

4

Inspect
Check the whole tray at a glance and remove any bad eggs.

5

Next tray
Slide the tray out and move straight on to the next one.

What You Will See

Infertile (clear): light passes straight through with no visible development.

Cracked egg: thin bright lines showing through the shell.
