The eggs I bought arrived last night instead of this coming Friday like I expected. The problem is that my main incubator is full, and going into lockdown tonight, probably won't be empty until Sunday evening. The shipped eggs were probably gathered Fri/Sat Jan 13th/14th, and are now sitting in my workroom recovering from their trip.
I'm assuming 8 or 9 days is way too long for shipped eggs to wait (though I've had great results with homegrown eggs up to 10 days), so what about digging out my old foam 'bator tonight and putting them in until Sunday, then moving them to the main incubator? Too much jostling?
The foam bator is such a pain to keep steady, not to mention buried behind a bunch of stuff in storage, but
