I have a question I hope some one can answer for me. We just upgraded to a digital incubator that automatically regulates temperature and has an egg turner. Before I was using the old "Little Giant". That was way too stressful to keep regulated. I'm so excited for this new incubator.
But my question is this; the turner operates every two hours, and it does so by rocking all the way to one diction, then all the way back the other direction, and returns to the middle. And then it repeats it again in another two hours. Is this normal turner operation? I would have thought that it would have moved the eggs all the way in one direction and stayed there, and then in another couple hours gone the other way. Not just rock them at the prescribed time. Will this work the way it is?
Thanks fellow chicken folks!
