    when do i pull my eggs from the rotator .

    i started my eggs on the 4-5-6 so do i assume 18 days from the first day or let it go past day 18 ? today would be the 18 th day for the eggs on the 4 th . or do i just pull all of them and set them all on the wire and turn by hand till they hatch ?
