    Confused on when to stop turning eggs

    This is were I'm thrown off. Chicken eggs typically take 21 days to hatch. Correct. And my incubator is an automatic turning unit. It is factory set to stop turning two days before hatching. That is day 19. And everyone says stop turning on day 18. Which is it? Am I missing something?

    Im a little confused. Some people say turn your eggs 2-3 times a day. Some people say the more you turn the better. And my Brinsea Mini Adv gives me a few choices of minutes in between turns. My options are between 30- 180 minutes between turns. The default is 45 min. Thats like 32 times a day...
