I'm due for some shipped eggs today...how long do they have to sit before you can stick them in the incubator...our temp outside right now is about 36 degrees...my incubator's been up, running and steady for a few days now...just need to know how long I have to wait before setting the eggs in the incubator....Thanks!!

6 to 24 hours. You want the eggs to come to room temps in your house and its good to rest the eggs so the air cell will settle back into place if it has had a bumpy ride with shipping.

my mail runs at 300 pm and i always let them sit over night and it works good for me!
