How many eggs can i fit in my bator?

I have one just like that. do you want to have them in the turner? I could fit 15 in the turner. You can fit a ton of eggs if you turn them manually. I'm sure you could fit at least 30 eggs in the hatching tray. I put in the "hatching tray" and filled it with eggs. I rescued these eggs, so I wouldn't usually do this, but I stacked 2 layers of eggs and turned them all manually. 27 guinea eggs in there, 98 percent hatch rate! They were 5 days along when I got them. Just so you believe me, here's a couple pics ;)

Yes. That little thermometer/hygrometer I got off of Amazon. It's from AvianWeb. In the last pic the number 37 is the humidity. The little number is the temp. It has the extra decimal place on the temp side so it will read 99.5, 99.7, etc. I love it. Make sure you calibrate it. I put it in a ziplock baggy and put it in a cup of ice water to see how close temp would get to 32 degrees. There are other articles on here about that. You have to turn them 3 times a day.
 
Hey there! i think youve gotten some good feedback from someone who has exactly the same bator.

I just wanted to add that if you stabalize the eggs in there, i find it much easier to manually turn them by tilting the whole incubator.

You see the empty supplement bottle under it? I just move it to the other side to make a turn.
