I recently had a Humidaire incubator fall into my lap. I've been playing with it so that once I get eggs I should know what I'm doing.
The incubator has an auto turner. It starts in the horizontal position and ever hour "turns". What it does is tilt about 30 degrees 'back' and then returns to horizontal over about a 30 second time period. One hour later it "turns" from horizontal 'forward' and returns to horizontal. I was under the impression you should tilt the eggs and leave them there, then tilt the other way etc....
My question is this. Does this constitute "turning"????
I can probably adjust the mechanism to tilt and stay there. Not sure I should tough.
