HELP

[Frenchkissed]

In a couple days I will be doing my First ever egg hatching. I have everything setup temp at 100.5 humidity around 55% But I’m using an automatic egg turner and incubator has a fan for circulation. It’s a still air brand. My question is. Where is the best location to put my 7 eggs at on the turner for best heat for hatching?

Thanks

Thanks !!! I’ve read that the females can crow also. I have a solid black silkie roo and he crows and he’s about 6 months old are close to it. I’m Really hoping these 2 are females cause he needs a girl in his life. My bigger girls peck him when he gets to close

All incubators are different so the only way you can find your hot or cold spots in incubator is with other separate thermometers checking yours. Its a good idea to use separate thermometers anyhow as a lot of them built into incubators are not always accurate. And also if your incubator has a fan built in it is not a still air incubator or is that the brand name?

Turn off the turner for lockdown, so turn it off at day 18. Can you post a pic of your incubator?
