EDUCATIONAL INCUBATION & HATCHING CHAT THREAD, w/ Sally Sunshine Shipped Eggs

[dawnmt70]

I've always let my shipped eggs sit for a day before incubation. Does anyone know if there is any harm in setting them right away?

you want them to sit upright for the aircell to get back into position, co can set them in your bator right away but you will still want the ac straight up with no turning for 24 ish hours

So if I do drool does that make me less adulty?

Less? I don't refer to Duckling as an adult. She doesn't even drool.

Update!

I posted about the eggs that lost too much weight. Well 3 have hatched so thats good news! Have 2 that are currently pipped. The second one to hatch was the one with the worst saddle air cell. Maybe she was cramped and ready to leave. Lol!

...waiting game on the rest...
