Anybody not turn eggs day 2-3?

Eggs don't need to be turned before day 4 and after day 13.
The critical days where eggs need to be turned for better hatch rates are from day 5 to day 12.

thank you!

There in lockdown so we will see what happens. Candled at day 11 and discarded the clear eggs. I don’t think the clear eggs were from not turning just not fertilized

Derrick,
I realize this is an old thread, did you post the results of your hatch on another thread? I am curious about the results.

I get 50% hatch rates on No turn hatches (intentional or autoturner failure!), a couple No turn days in very early incubation is unlikely to cause major issues, maybe you’ll lose the random egg but not half your hatch.
