I've done quite a few hatches so I've begun staggering the hatch with 2 incubators now.
My question is this - I usually keep the egg turner inside as I gather the eggs over 3 or 4 days before I put them in the incubator. I'm wondering if leaving them in the garage is ok instead of inside the house? (we have a 2 year old and it's becoming harder to keep them away from little hands' reach)
I put my hydrometer out there that tracks the lowest and highest temperature and (we are in GA) the lowest so far we've hit is around 54 degrees. I know some people have hatched after putting them in the refrigerator (which seems crazy) but I'm wondering if this or even 5 or 10 degrees cooler out there would impact my hatch?
Thanks!
