I have a Question.

[KaylorFarms]

How am I going to turn the eggs in this incubator? Its kinda cramped. How will I tilt them with out hitting the other eggs? Sorry, just trying to learn before I incubate

Erm... have you bought it yet? It looks like an automatic. They tilt the eggs from side to side. Kind of like.. //... ||... \\...

 

[KaylorFarms]

Oh ok! So you turn them 3 different ways.. Right?

 

[Fanci Feathers Marans]

Right. They stay on the small end the whole time, and they should turn themselves. That's the only way.

Have you bought this incubator yet? If so the only way to turn in this kind is to spin your eggs round and tilt them as much as you can. It's not an auto turner I'm afraid. I'm afraid these incubators are notorious for giving out the wrong reading for temperature so please do not trust what it says. My best advice would be to get a calibrated known to be correct thermometer and put it in there to get a correct reading.
Good luck

Yes, a lot of incubators' thermometer s are wrong. I'm almost certain they search out the world's cheapest thermometers and slap them in incubators. Mine reads 70 when the incubator is 95. Its done that since the day we bought it

I bought a incubator that was supposed to turn automatically and didn't so I put first one side up on a box them later took it down and put the other side up and I would do the same with this one. since then I bought a cabinet incubator.

Now that's dedication. Heavy, wasn't it?

I like your tilting analogy!

it was one of those 48 egg yellow plastic incubators and it wasn't heavy at all. fortunately the cabinet incubator turns all on its own.
