how to place eggs in automatic egg turner

[Lroach711]

This may be a dumb question...but which direction do I need to place my eggs in the automatic egg turner? I have an LG turner. Thanks!

"pointed end" down

its okay I've asked that before

 

[Lroach711]

Thanks! I thought I'd read it somewhere but couldn't find it or remember what it said

I should be getting my first hatching eggs hopefully tomorrow! Can't wait!

What's that saying? The only dumb question is the unasked one.

Yes, pointy end down. Sometimes you have one that's almost round- candle it and the end with the aircell is the rounded one and goes up.

Get your incubator and humidity ready before you put the eggs in.

Also dont forget to let the eggs rest at least 12 hours before you put them in the bator

I let them set for 24 hours if they are shippend eggs.
Put them on top of the bator while the bator is running o the get room temperature.

I set up my incubator last night and have the temp steady and the humidity is almost about right.

thanks for the tips!

What if you have already started with them pointed up

What if you have already started with them pointed up

Then you need to turn them over so that the small end is pointed down.
