    I would give them 21 or 22 days before I gave up. If you have a bunch you could open one or 2 and check . If the temp is a little low it may take longer. If they are infertile or bad some should have gotten bad rotten and cracked or exploded by now and you would be smelling them.

    One of my neighbors was raising emus @15 years ago. We would boil the eggs for 30 minutes for hard boiled. Made breakfast for several people. When the fad went out we processed the adult birds legs and thighs into burger. My kids loved it and were sad when we ran out.

    My old Bator was just trays. Held 1500 quail eggs. Would just kind of roll them around by hand twice a day. Had prob 90% hatch rate. Kind of tough when rotten ones would explode while turning. You could prob hatch pharoah a on top of a hot water heater
