Final count....26 went into lockdown and have 19 healthy chicks

Candled tonight....pulled 18 (mostly clear) eggs out of 45 set in the incubator. At least now I don't have to stress out about the autoturner being maxed out!

Good idea to weigh the whole basket instead, much faster. I guess when you cull clears or quitters the turner may improve......

Good news! Brinsea answered my question. She said the capacity was 1560 grams...... Now I just need to weigh all the eggs to find out if I am maxed out yet!

No, are they super heavy? But it seems odd to me to say just a number of eggs. I believe it says 9.5 goose eggs.....(has anyone ever done a half egg in the incubator?). As usual, I am fitting way more than the suggested 24 in there....bantam eggs do allow more creative use of space. Just worry...

How many eggs do you have in yours?

Does anyone know what the maximum weight capacity for the brinsea octagon 20 autoturner is?....

In all the years since Hurricane Sandy I have never lost power again. Until today, one day after setting eggs. We did not lose power DURING the nor'Easter, but we did today for over an hour and a half. Luckily, my brinsea held temp just fine!

Where can I get hatching bags to keep my chicks sorted out?
