Day 0 a day at all?

My incubator counts the days with the first day being day 0, so would I put my Quail eggs into lockdown on day 14? I also put half the eggs in a day after the first, and would it ok to put them into lockdown a day early??

The day you set the eggs is day 0. The day after you set them is day 1. It won't hurt them to lockdown a day early though.

so is day 0 actually day 1? and day 1 is day 2?

I'm not sure I understand. Day 0 is day 0 and day 1 is day 1.

Sorry bout that! So if day 15 is lockdown for quail( not counting day 0, starting with day 1) i would do lockdown on day 14 because it is one less?
