Another Question From a Newbie!!!!

[Sugroxz]

Is there any kind of Hatching Calendar available (Or that anyone knows of on here) that you can just look at the date that you placed them in the incubator and will tell you when their 21st day is??? I know with dogs this is called a welping chart so maybe it is called a Hatch Chart on here. LOL

Also my other question is How long can eggs sit before I have to either incubate them or throw them out? I guess I am asking how long is their shelf life?

No calendar but if you set on Monday, they hatch three weeks later on Monday.

Second question: after 7 days they start losing fertility.

Thanks for the info... I have been counting out the days where I know but was wondering if there was a possible chart available.. Maybe someone needs to make one up... ;o)

Also to your second answer if how many days does it take for them to loose all their fertility? Do you know??

They start losing fertility on day 7, and setting after day 10 it is highly unlikely you see a hatch.

As far as a chart, most people just use a calendar.
