I remember someone mentioning that too @KikisGirls. I think it was if they were cold let them heat up with the incubator. Setting them on the counter first to warm up I would have the incubator ready.

Well that's your homework then!

So not quite 5 minutes and the bator is already up 10 degrees.
I'm betting it only takes 10 mins to get to 99/100.
That might be too fast to warm the eggs up from the cold huh?

Well that's your homework then!

I'm stuck reading the darn avian medicine book right now.

I'll read the instructions I guess, but they are probably all wrong anyways!
LOL

A lot of literature really frowns on excessive handling and candling of eggs. Although, I think as long as your hands are clean and you are careful, you can candle once a day until lockdown.

Up date: So 2 broody hens, each in their own broody cage and run, sitting on 7 eggs each. Everything went very well, no freaked out hens, both settled in and back to sleep in no time. ( I could hardly see ) and was about to freak out. So we will see what we get in about 3 weeks.
