collecting eggs for incubation

[lacylahman]

how many days old can eggs be before you get them in the incubator? We have been collecting for 3-4 days now.

your all good-some people will wait for up to 7-10 days to set a big batch..I have done that and still had great results on the oldest eggs I never ship eggs older than just 1-3 days old though because of shipping timing...

You are fine up to about 10 days.

excellent! thanks for the help. 28 eggs total, 6 black copper marans, 14 golden sexed-link/black copper, and the rest are ee/black coppers. I'm so excited to see how these crosses will turn out.
