My daughter candles our eggs and says that if when you turn the egg the dark spot (the chick) moves around the egg as though in liquid then the chick is dead.


I think there are lots of images on the net.


I'm not very confident in working out what's going on but my daughter always gets it right! She just taught herself by looking at images on the internet so worth having a look on there.
