In the Brooder
Thank you very much. This is the info I need. I fully expect others will appreciate it as well. I love this site!!!Never go 360° as the embryos get into certain positions and 360 will confuse them. Basically you will rock them back and forth like a ship. Draw a line from the big end to the small end of the egg. The line in front of you is 12 o clock. Start the line to the left at 10 o'clock, at next turn, roll the egg to the right to 2 o'clock, next turn, back to the left to 10 o'clock and so on, back and forth. I like to turn every hour or 2, as long as you turn 3 or 4 times a day, they will be ok. Turning keeps the yolk loose and centered, it also gives the growing embryo a new food source after consuming everything around itself.
