OK... see how they are set in torn up pieces of cardboard egg carton at a slight tilt?  I have "x" side facing in towards heat elements.  When I turn, I will rotate egg so "o" side is facing element and keep the slight tilt towards outside of bator.

 

Here ya go:

Why don't sheep shrink in the rain?

 

 

Why is there brail at drive up ATMs??

 

 

Why are their floatation devices instead of parachutes in my airplain seat???

 

 

If a tree falls in the woods and my husband doesn't hear it, am I still wrong????

Are yours laying on wire screen bottom? I think it is easier to see movement when set like in my picture.
