How do I turn an egg if I'm going to a wedding for 1-2 nights/days

I need help I can't take it to my friends place because their parents don't want to will it be ok?

Can you use an automatic egg turner? If not you can just not turn the eggs while you are out of town. I bet they will be fine. I have gone as many as 5 days without turning eggs and they were fine.

automatic egg turner, or just chance it. I bet they will be fine the only problem from not turning is the embryo can stick to one side of the shell,1 or 2 days unturned wont be a problem.
Welcome and enjoy BYC!

Thank you

will the chick die inside if it sticks to the side?

 

[chickenlover137]

As in if I turn it after will it, I guess unstick?

I don't think it would UNstick but, it probably takes more than a couple of days for it to stick.
