You know Linda, I now understand why the other day SCG was asking me about when to candle the turkey eggs. I think she wanted me to OK this "check before 24 hours have even gone by" craziness. I was just too thick to understand.

Working on setting up the LG for turkey eggs--a challenge. Had to think about the best set up, or rather what variable will I tweak this time:

I tried shipped egg on their sides the first time; this time I'm putting them in egg cartons and let them be for a few days.

I have looked into my eggs and don't even see an air cell yet. Is this good? Or bad?

ANd yes, I'm going nuts again.

Can we get a discount on a bulk order of straight jackets?

You got that right!!!


I did set the eggs. all 6. Temps running about 101 with one plug in. SO will pull 2nd plug tomorrow. Adding my chick eggs now so the chicks are well adjusted before the turkeys arrive. ( I have a second incubator to use as a hatcher.)

That would be the sensible reason to candle on Day Zero. Dsqard and I suspect SCG is candling for PROGRESS!

Yup, she couldn't wait, she set yesterday.

Yes, she does!!!!

I can't wait!!!!!!!!!!!! Lovely blue eggs and hopefully someday my own!

Was gone all day Saturday and got home at 4PM today. Eggs haven't arrived yet, so I'll be setting late and catching up from page 27!

ETA: Had to change 37 to 27...I was a bit behind! LOL
