Can You Incubate Eggs In An Egg Carton?

[Mrs. Fluffy Puffy]

Can you incubate eggs in an egg carton? How would you turn them? The small end up and then just turn it to the large end? I incubate quail eggs in an egg carton, but they're so small they can fit in the bottom of the carton and you can turn them side, to side.
Help Needed! Thanks for the advice.

Cut a hole in the bottom of each compartment so the the small end can stick through. You then just tilt the entire carton 45 degrees or so.

EDIT: You can also just tilt the entire incubator.

I have a Home-Made Incubator, and it has an automatic egg turner that works. I only have 1 Bantam Egg that I am incubating, cause my mom won't let me incubator anymore then that. ( Beside my quail eggs, she doesn't care about/ them. ) So just cut a small hole in the bottom and then just turn on the auto turner?

So how does the egg turn? So just cut a hole at the bottom of the carton that the eggs is going to be in, and stick the small end of the egg into it? and then turn on the turner and it'll turn? Do you have a picture you can show me?
