Do they need to be turned everyday like other eggs?

Yep, the same. If you are already hatching LF eggs then just do the same with these guys. I have heard they lose water quicker so humidity needs to be a little higher but, I did not have that issue. I hatched at 99 because I heard that with lower temps more of the females survive and was testing that theory, sold them off at 2 weeks due to some home issues so I don't know if the theory is right. I do know that when my thermometers were wrong and my temps were running HIGH (102) with out me knowing it, out of 5 hatches (several of different breeds, 2 had zero babies), only 5 made it and ALL were male.
