Day 13 in the Big Broody House....

...and I still haven't candled. Why? - because 1. I don't want to upset Hennibal and 2. I haven't really got the right equipment.

What are the downsides to not candling?

The only downside is that you have to be patient and see what happens at hatching time.

If there are any bad eggs, the hen will probably push them out of her nest.

Only a week to go... good luck!
