Egg Cartons?

I do agree the less contact the better. My last hatch did ok but the ones that got beat up alot didn't fair well at all. They didn't hatch but they rocked so I think they gave up. But I will read that article.

I'm a total newbie, only had 2 hatches so far (the first was a complete failure, the incubator got unplugged for an entire day), the next was about 33% with shipped eggs, which I counted as a success. But I did notice there was a lot of chick soccer going on, and I found a couple of eggs that had pipped, but got kicked over so the pip was upside down, and they didn't make it. Could have been other things I know, but it was enough that when I put this 3rd batch into lockdown, I think I'm going to try the egg cartons.

I hatched mine in egg cartons and had no problems with it.
