Eggs Before Incubator

[CurrerBell]

Hi all! I am having eggs shipped to me, ETA is this Friday. My incubator, however, will not be arriving until the following Saturday. Can someone please advise me on the best course of action? Thank you!

By the time the eggs have been shipped plus an additional 8 day wait for your incubator, their viability decreases.
It’ll still be worth a try. While waiting for your incubator, keep the eggs in a cool area, pointed end down and turn them 3x a day.
Be sure to let the incubator run for a few hours to regulate temp and humidity before setting the eggs.
Best of luck! Keep us posted. Anxious to see how many are viable after you candle them the first time!
