Hi happy New Year, I am new to this site, and new to hatching chicks.

[Nat007]

I have a 24 egg incubator, and Silkie eggs. For all the research I've done, I see, techniques can differ. What is the best amount of times per day to turn an egg, the incubator automatically does it maybe every hour, is this good?

Hi and welcome to our community. I’d suggest following standard instructions accompanying your incubator but be prepared to appreciate that the standard instructions may not be ideal for your situation. Enjoy the challenge and experience.
