HALLOWEEN Hatch-a-Long 2016 w/ Hosts, Mike, Sally & BantyChooks

[OneMountainAcres]

Quick question, this round of hatching most of my shipments were delayed by days and eggs have the loosest aircells ive seen yet... they have not attached to anything and so jiggle and move EASILY...despite that, I have several Cornish developing and a couple Sussex and some brahma... question is:

Should I NOT have them being turned at all this time except by hand? I've gotten quite a few blood rings already.
TIA

I've had better luck just putting them in the turner to incubate but keeping them upright in an egg carton to hatch. Good luck!

Can I lift the lid to add more water if I don't see an external pip? It's day 20 or 21.

I ended up just squirting some in the vent hole. But thanks.

Yes (as Auroradream said). Next time, rig up a straw duct taped to a funnel. The straw can go though the vent hole.

I toldmy husband I won the auction, and all he said was "how big of a house does a goose need?"
