GOOD MORNING EVERYONE!!

I have a quick question concerning lockdown. Its three days BEFORE hatch day correct?
So if my eggs are to hatch on the 26th i take the turner out and bump the humidity on the 23rd??

According to this hatching schedule I printed from the online (cuz, you know, the online knows everything, lol) indicates to stop turning on day 18, which would be 4 day before. I'm not an expert or anything, though. I've read other places to stop turning on the 17th and 16th days. I miscalculated on my first hatch, and accidentally stopped turning only one day before.

Ok you guys I feel silly but I am going to have to google that egg white thing. You'd think I would have some idea what you are talking about at 36 years old

I've been sitting here thinking the same thing...

I think most people don't know unless they've delved into the deep abyss of *trying* to.. Um, procreate. For some it comes easily (lucky ducks ) and they don't have to research such disturbing ideas, and then finding themselves considering trying it.

Oh man, I googled that egg white thing. It was what I suspected they were suggesting. Sounds a bit well gross. But might be worth a try and I definitely have plenty of eggs.

What did people do before google!? And I agree, sounds a bit gross.
