    Just turning egg turner off

    On day 18 instead of removing egg turner, does just unplugging egg turner, I negatively affect hatch rate?

    I have had a lot of red hens have larger Crest than most breeds.

    Choosing not candle.

    Being new to incubating chickens, I did not candle any of first batch8 out of 11 hatched. 7 have survived. Only loss was a drowned chick. I have a batch on now and did not candle. When I start smelling bad eggs I locate and pull the stinky eggs out. What are thought golf long term success...

    Extremely large egg

    7 months.. I found out after I posted, was manually turning eggs and one slipped out of my hand, and of course the large egg was the egg that got cracked. Was a double yolk egg. For future reference will double yolk eggs hatch or should it just go in the refrigerator next time. Thanks for advice.

    Extremely large egg

    The egg on the left is a duck egg. My ducks can not get into where hens lay eggs. Only egg I have gotten this size. Is real light but not white. Any ideas. Can drake get ahold of hen possibly?
