Eggs waiting to go in to incubator, WHAT END UP????? VERY NEW AT THIS?

[daniellenoel]

The farmer brought me the eggs today, was hoping to put them into incubator today, the eggs are in a regular egg carton but not all have the big end up, is this going to be a problem?
Should I wait until tomrorow to put them in?
Make sure all have big end up?

They have been at room temperature since this morning???
Thanks

what kind of bator do you have ?
egg turner?

I have a Brinsea Octagon Advance 20, yes with the egg turner
Actually only a few were not in carton bigger end up,
So I am going to set them in the incubator in a little bit.

Just set them big end up, shouldn't be a problem. You can candle with a bright small flashlight in a dark room to see which end has the air cell. Sometimes it is hard to tell which end is which.

I let my eggs rest over night "pointy end" down. I lets the air cell settle. I dont think it would matter if you put them in now.

I will let them sit over night in the carton here in my classroom,
pointy end down. then put them in in the morning.
Thanks for your help
Should I be wearing gloves when I touch them? or can i just touch them with my hands?
