Okay all, I have a question... I got a brand new Incubator and Turner. I ordered it from Incubator Warehouse through Ebay. The incubator seems to be great. The temperatures seem to hold steady and recover when I need to open it. The humidity also seems to be holding very well as long as I use the #1 or #2 channel and do not add too much water at a time.
The turner, I am not as sure about. The IncuTurn lets the eggs lay on the bottom and rolls them very slowly on their axis. It does not tilt the eggs like most turners. This seemed like a more natural motion to me so I got it. On day 7 of my first incubation with it, it seems that there is a light side and a dark side on the eggs. It is distributed from blunt end to pointy end but it seems to be concentrated on one side. This might be okay because it moves throughout the day or there could be a problem. There were veins and visible movement in 17 out of 22 eggs with the candler.
I am looking to know specifically if anyone has ever used this type of turner and what were the results? Also, does the egg being more concentrated to one side and light on one side indicate definitively that there is a problem?
