I'm curious what is a "hatch-a-long?" I've hatched 2 groups of eggs..the second is my valentines day hatch...they started this morning, to my surprise. Pekin ducks too. but I have a whole group in the turner that will be due around mid march. So I've never joined a hatch along and wondered what do I do?

on a hatch-along everyone sets their eggs in the incubator the same day.
