IMHO, everyone hatches different to each their own, who is to say anyones methods r right or wrong?? if someone don't like the methods i use to hatch for example, who cares?? it's not worth argueing over it's silly. if everyone did everything the same in this world it would be boring and misserable. i'll do it the way i want to hatch reguardless of someone else's opinions.
my job as a serigant momma hen is to care for those eggs anyway i can and improve hatch rate anyway i can. to help those babies be born healthy and on time and to be good stock the best that it can be without complications or stressing the babies or harming them so they grow up to be healthy birds to live a long life. shipping makes it worse for hatching eggs so extra time and methods should be made available to help that if possible. also if incubators r lacking ect since we r the parents bringing these babies into the world it is our job to compansate where lacking not the chicks being born, i see nothing wrong with that.
i'm sure many others would agree with that and feel the same way. we have not harmed them by useing this method only given them a better chance at survival and i don't see how that should be a bother to anyone else when i'm hatching them in my own home noone should have the right to dictate that except me. if it's not for u hay that's up to u but for me it is wonderful and does have major advantages so i'll keep useing this method and share my experiences.
people here are backyard breeders not a hatchery to comepair to that is absered cuz people here at byc don't have the million $ equipment a hatchery has and most r very new to hatching not experienced. they look to us for guidance with questions to help based on our hands on experience and knowledge not what a hatchery may or may not do that was not the question asked.
however, the only comparison i see is in the drawers they r upright to make more space and to get better hatches, same thing with cartons. i have 2 sportsmans and can hatch about 600 or so eggs at once. now tell me how i'm to do big hatches if they r not somehow standing on end? it's impossible that many eggs would never fit in the 2 hatchers at once and i'd have to do speratic hatches every time and not hatch at once big hatches. with this method i can hatch more at once and babies r making it out not only better but more alive with less complications than the old school method.
actually in a sence the methods r the same since they possition there eggs the same way in those drawers(open trays) technically we use homemade drawers and hatch the same ways.
