hovabator question

[janieschicks]

hello,
This is my first post. I am about to purchase a Hovabator 1602N and i wondering if i need the egg turner if i'm only going to use 15 - 30 eggs at a time? Also will larger eggs like duck or turkey fit in the hovabator? Thank you for any help!

Hello,

from South Carolina!

Not sure about that specific incubator, but the turner is a great thing to have. Eggs have to be turned 3-5 times a day, if not more- and it's hard to be there every time!

thank you ranch hand! I am gone about 7 hours each day, is that too long not to be turned?

thank you

nope, i turn mine every 6-8 hours. be sure to turn them an odd number of times per day, minimum of three. good luck and
