I have read a lot on here, it seems the hatch rate on Ebay shipped eggs is poor or non existant.
Is this true? I bought 26 eggs, two breeds I wanted really bad and am now worried I have wasted my money.
I am doing everything right as far as temp, humidity and turning, I did leave half the eggs in cartons(paper)
with the lid torn off, hoping this upright position would be a good thing.?? I raise the bator up on a side and
hand turn the loose eggs. After reading a lot on here it seems hatching eggs in a bator is difficult. My eggs have only gone in the bator on Thanksgiving day, after an upright rest in a carton (after shipping) for 20 hrs.
Any help or tips to help get a good hatch. I am trying to use common sense with this new adventure, but the more I read the more nervous I get. thank you
