A.B.Tunsten Halogen Candling Lamp £69.95
including VAT and carriage.
This latest candling lamp from A.B. Incubators incorporates features
especially designed for the dedicated breeder of rare and endangered
species as well of those more at home with domestic varieties.
The development
of this lamp has taken place over the past ten years and we believe
it to be the most versatile lamp available today. It may be used
in either the upright position with the egg above the light source
or with the light exiting the box horizontally and the egg held against
the slide, allowing a more complete view of the embryos features.
This versatility is only made possible by the use of a diachronic
lamp which actively draws the heat away from the egg whilst the multi
mirrors reflect the light along a focused 13 degree beam, giving
higher than normal intensity. The slide should be moved to select
the correct diameter of hole that best fits the egg being candled.
We have tested this lamp on eggs from lovebird to
ostrich with great success, however certain eggs have shells so dense
that no light can permeate them at all, these should be monitored
using weight loss techniques.
