 Candling= Albinos??

Dose this really get you albinos??Is candling even safe for the egg(s)?!? I’m very doubtfully


temp is a steady 82 for the first 20 days then spiking the temp to 90 to get some really nice looking albinos.Then candling.

The breeding is what gets you a certain morph, not incubating and candling. Candling is perfectly safe. All it is is shining a pen light through the egg to see if it’s fertile.

Repfanatic is absolutely right. Cnadling does nothing to tell what morph the egg is. Where in the world did you hear that? Second, do not do such a drastic spike. It is not safe and should be perfromed by EXPERIENCED breeders only, not someone jsut starting out like you. It will only make a darker color, not a seperate morph.
