I know this is an old thread but.. well I have a still Air Little Giant Incubator that I bought the turner for and today is day 23 and I after reading others experiences decided to lockdown today or tomorrow.... well I've 3 pipping and 1 zipped so I unplugged my turner. Rigged up a small tubing and with a syringe feed some 30 mls of water into the water wells and waiting. I figured I'd let others who are new to this know (while I wait lol) in some places apparently day 22 should be lockdown lol. But It has been warm here and rainy so maybe my Guinea yard eggs (they refuse the nesting areas we have tried) had started germination prior to my placing them in the incubator? maybe idk. I gather their eggs once a day in the evening since there seems to be no real schedule like there is with my chicken hens.

Anyway I'm leaving the turner in and waiting.....
