I put them in wrong side up

[Crazychickenlady1987]

It's day 4 and I just realized I put them in pointy Side Up is it too late to flip them? They are in one of the cheap yellow and white incubators. I have been turning them at least three times a day but I'm so worried they're not going to make it because they're upside down. Please help

You could try it! I just lost one of mine because I did the same thing but it’s day 4 so they yours may have a chance. Mine was close to hatching!

It should not make a difference at this stage of incubation. Just be gentle when flipping them.

...and watch your humidity in that thing.
It stays way too high.

Can you explain

Keep your humidity at 30% to 45% from day 1 to 18, also check your room temperature for fluctuation cause it will affect temps and humidity in your incubator.

And good luck.

The eggs being upside down for a few days isn't a problem.
The problem will be not having at least one separately purchased CALIBRATED thermometer and salt tested humidity gauge in that bator.

You can NOT trust the temp reading that it displays.

I’ve bought two Govee Bluetooth hygrometers off Amazon ($15 each) and they were spot on temperature and within 1% on humidity. If you’re looking for inexpensive and fairly quick option for accurate hygro
