Hello fellow chicken people, First time incubating chicken eggs, I'm using a Hatching Time Incubator CT120 with automatic egg turners, Temperature is Set as default per Hatching time recommendations 99.8F and 50% Humidity. Eggs were placed in the incubator 1/31/23 at 1900. I placed the eggs on their side instead of upright. When I placed them in the incubator, they were relatively cold outside temp , I didn't know that I had to let them heat up naturally to room temp to avoid a possible issue with the embryo sticking to the eggshell. I will be posting images when I'm at home. I would like some advice and reassurance in regard to this issue. Ive attached a link to a thread that has images similar to what my mine would look like. Post #6 has the images. TIA
