Had incubator set and eggs are doing great, all developing good, checked last night and eggs were in the same position as the day before, thought nothing of it, but kept checking every 2 hours, nothing.. turner quit! I don't know how long it has been not running, chicken eggs are set to stop turning tomorrow, and turkey eggs the 7th. I took them out and started turning the turkey eggs, is there any hope?? temp and humidity have been perfect.
help!!!!
 
I sure hope so.. These are the eggs from my beautiful royal palm turkeys that I lost to a fox, and a neighbors dog.
I thought about putting a few under a hen in the chicken house, we have had lots of luck with them hatching guineas and chicks lately!

In some of the old books (1920-30's) it's stated to stop turning on day 14 for chickens...not sure about the turkeys. I'm sure there is hope for your hatch.

Best wishes,
Ed
