We are going to be incubating eggs as part of a 1st grade STEM project at my son's school. The fertilized eggs we were supposed to receive ended up being shipped to another state. So, our timeline is now thrown off. The school is closed over Memorial Day weekend, so we're trying to figure out the best course of action. Our options are to start incubation at home (about a week) and then transport the eggs to the school to finish the remaining 2 weeks at the school; or, begin the incubation at school and transport the eggs home for the last week of incubation; or, leave the eggs incubating in the school over the 3 days without anyone checking on them. What is the best decision? Our students are very excited to begin this project as it's an annual tradition, but we want to do what's best for the chicks. We can't wait until after the holiday to begin incubating because the hatch would be after school ends for the summer. I would greatly appreciate guidance/feedback.
Thank you!!!
 
It sounds like the best option would be to start the incubation at home and then transport the eggs to the school to finish the remaining 2 weeks. This way, you can ensure that the eggs are incubated properly at the beginning and then finish the process at the school. It's important to make sure the eggs are kept at the right temperature and humidity levels throughout the incubation process. Good luck with your project! :jumpy
