    Review by '' on item 'Mini digital egg incubator, 12 quail eggs (9 chicken eggs)'

    I did buy the humidifier meter to help me know when to raise or lower it. I was a great experience and turn out for my first time but now I have greater knowledge and have seen it work for myself. There are always factors that play into any given situation but I give this product 5 stars for...

    My first hatch

    That is so exciting as I have the Janoel 12 incubator and this was my first time! Just hatched 8 out 8 this weekend!. The incubator turns them if the eggs are not too big. I took 1 of the dividers out so they would have more room to turn. When I went into lockdown they were still on their sides...

    Candling help

    It is so hard to know what you are looking at with dark eggs as this was my first hatch and I did not have a clue even after reading a lot of things. So first, I would say to just check them each day. Mine looked difference most of the time from each other in some way. I couldn't see veins but...

    First hatch

Of all the things that could go wrong, well I am blessed they are doing so well. Since I have a small incubator that saids up to 12 eggs I did only 8 and really I...

    Unsure on when to put my eggs into lockdown.

    I put my lockdown on day 18 at about 5pm of which should have been at 1:30pm however, next day I had 5 to hatch so let's say for all practical purposes while you are gathering you eggs at different times and probably a few days apart... I would most definitely lockdown on day 18. Good Luck!

    Humidity problems

    Thank you. That helps. So on day 18th take out turner and lay them down and don't move them at that point, correct. They are on their sides now and when I take the turner out I am assuming it does not matter as long as I do not bother them, correct? Thanks again

    Humidity problems

    I have a Janoel12 Magicfly auto egg incubator and the extra digital meter monitor (magicfly). First let me say something that I just figured out and is kinda funny as a first time hatcher. I was looking at my temperature instead of the humidity on my digital meter! Lord help me and my baby...
