Just put them in your pocket

For anyone that has expirience with the Brinsea Octagon 40 Advance Incubator with Auto Turn Cradle:

What do you guys think of it? Does it work well? Does it heat the eggs evenly even though it is so long? Is it worth the price?

Thanks!

[The Duck Ladie]

Today is day 7 and I candled my 27 duck eggs. A bunch of the eggs are marked "?"(Which means I forgot to put then ducks in seperate cages so I knew who laid what) And 5 of the eggs are clear (probably from my runner since the boys don't like her enough) Rats! and one of the magpies is clear and one of the anconas is clear (I'm gonna go have a talk with my drakes) but the rest (20 of them, one of them I cannot tell, maybe it's a bloodring, cannot tell just now) seem to have embryos! My last incubation I kept the eggs on there sides and turned by hand, but that meant I had to arrange my schedule to turning which was a pain, so this time I bought an egg turner, which obviously keeps the eggs facing pretty much upward all the time. On candling I found every single embryo was right by the air cell and a bunch of them I could not even see cause they were underneath the air cell. I am very interested in seeing what the campbell mixes will look like! I am sure they will be good layers.

I'm hoping they will be fine in that position.

Should be, I've eleven in lockdown that spent all their turning days in a autoturner. Ten out of eleven have pipped.
