Hello :)

[catchap]

I'm cat, I'm incubating my second lot of chicks in a completely different incubator than last time. Just joined as I'm unsure how to turn the upright eggs, if anyone can help please comment. I was told to keep them narrow end down but seen vids of people rotating vertically. (My Last lot were lying on their side.)

Lean the eggs from side to side 3 times a day leaving them pointy side down.
Day 1- /\/
DAY2-\/\
Day3- /\/
