What is the earliest time you can candle mandarin duck eggs? Can you candle at day 4 like normal duck eggs?

These eggs are touchier than other breeds for some reason..i usually wait about 6 or 7 days..candle them when i have to open the bator to add water to check for fertility and see which ones are duds.  then i don't candle again for another 5 days or so..i also put call duck eggs in to hatch at the same time so that when they hatch the call ducklings will teach the mandarins to eat.
