How often to hand turn duck eggs?

[Jenbirdee]

I just took the auto Turner tray out because it was running rough. I’m going to hand turn the eggs. Is it three times a day and do you just turn them over to the opposite side or should you do like a full rotation like the auto turn does I think mine does a turn and a half or something . they’re laying on their sides, they have numbers on them , do I just do numbers side up then numbers side down Etc
And should be three times a day?

Hi, when I hand turn my duck eggs, I will put an X and an O on each side, then turn them at least 3 times a day, just to the opposite side each time. 3 times a day should be ok, if you have the time, you could do 5. It just has to be an uneven number so they aren't always left on the same side every night for the longer period while you're sleeping.
