I have purchased replacement motors. They are not too hard to change.My turner refuses to work. Thankfully it’s easy to take the motor off and turn by hand. And for the mid day turn I use the brother 2.0 model.not sure why the brand new turner won’t work. And I sent it back and it still won’t work.
This is a brand new incubator. I sent the motor back to get it fixed. Came back and still won’t work
the motor itself is $60. I’m considering seeing about a return after this hatch. By the time they hatch the incubator will be a whopping 2.5 months old.
That is not good!This is a brand new incubator. I sent the motor back to get it fixed. Came back and still won’t work
It looks like you are stacking them? Yes to had turning.Guys, I have a question.
I have three eggs that say d-4 so they are about to go on lockdown. Then I have four more that are about a week behind. And now I got one more from my girl this morning I threw in for the 4th of July hatch.
My plan was to pull the four out and let them share the 2nd incubator with these ten, while the others are on lockdown and hatch. Then put them back into the 1st incubator on their own, so they can finish out and hatch and have their own space for lockdown.
The only problem is I don't really like how this looks when the turner goes. They are turning but it looks like there's some stress being out on the eggs, and I don't want things to crack. WWYD?
Should I unplug the turner and try manually turning things for a few days? If I do that, should I also go ahead and pull out the turner tray so there a little more space for them not to be squished? Or... Is it probably going to be fine?
Last pic is just the three that are going on lockdown.
How often should I be hand turning? I obviously won't be able to do that overnight, or as frequently as an automatic one would be.
I turn 3 times a day.
