I have a homemade incubator, I put some eggs in, they went into lockdown about a week ago but here's the kicker, I didn't change anything. I didn't change the temp nor did I change the humidty nothing, the only thing I did differently was not turn them. I opened the incubator up about 2 times a day as if I was still turning them and they STILL hatched. ALL 10 Eggs still hatched and I did nothing differently.... So it makes me wonder why we have lockdown???
