awesome!  Dont fret I just set some horrible ones as well, so looks like we are in this together!  go us! lol  We can only do so much for them at this point.  when I start to turn I only start turning the better ones after awhile yer gonna haffa start turning a bit.  I try to set them so when they turn they are least rolly from one side to other so hmmm  let me explain this...

if your looking at your bator and your turner is turning back to front toward you, you want the biggest dips east west so they dont get as disrupted during turning.  that make sense? 

Yes, it makes sense. I will readjust the eggs as needed when I start turning. As I only have the one incubator(Brinsea Octagon 20 Adv with humidity pump) all eggs will start turning at the same time. Not sure how I'd start turning the "good" eggs before the bad ones... space is pretty tight in there with 18 eggs! LOL

how bad are these leftovers?

They do not look to bad to me. There is a piece of egg shell stuck on them though.
