I tried to candle an egg once. Not all to impressed. But this technique is used for many things. Shine a light through an opaque object towards you, and you let the light get blocked by densor material in the middle. So I can see how it can work on an egg.

BUT a 2 MILLION candle power pointed at myself?

Maybe befriend someone that runs a light house?

OK just kidding.


And tails have bones

Peaches and Herb was a great group too.



>>Last night I was lying in bed and out of nowhere it hit me. I can candle my albino black rats & Hope. Since I didn't trust a candle around them I got a 2 million candle power spotlight. Peaches and Hope are 100% female. But I am not sure on Chunk. The first 2 times I couldn't see well because he kept squirming. I thought I saw almost a "shadow" inside him but wasn't 100% sure of what I saw. But an observation I had which also leaves me wondering is, do snakes spines stop at their vent? I saw absolutely nothing on Hope and Peaches and thought a snakes spine ran to the tip of the tail. Was I wrong or can you just not see it?
