    Turning question

    So today I went downstairs to check my incubator and realized the turner wasn't plugged in. It's only been 5 days since I started them. So my question is, will this cause problems at all with the eggs not being turned for 5 days? Thanks

    Sick bobwhite quail hen

    GQF Sportsman question

    Lockdown

    I have a question about different ways to handle eggs during the lockdown. I thought I read some where that you can place the eggs in an egg carton to keep them solid so they don't roll around when the others hatch. I've always just placed the eggs on their sides since I was a little kid but I'm...

    Eggs a rolling!!!

    Just checked the bator and seen 3 of my 12 Welsummer eggs rolling around! I'm really excited, this is the best part of raising chickens along with when you get your first egg from the hens you hatched out yourself! Hopefully when I wakeup in the morning I'll have little ones running around. I...
