Incubating questions

[turkeyguy123]

Does anyone out there hatch eggs out of their incubator on a weekly basis? Just wondering how to manage having some eggs hatching and other just starting.

Do you mean without a separate hatcher? If you meant with a separate hatcher then this would work easily. Otherwise it would end up being a bad idea I would imagine. The humidity would never be perfect for either the incubating eggs or hatching unless you had it severely wrong to accommodate one set over the other. Plus when the chicks hatch they would be throwing the incubating eggs all over and getting their hatching gunk all over the other eggs. In my opinion I would never hatch in the same incubator but there are exceptions to this. Cabinet incubators are able to do this. Table top incubators would have a hard time incubating and hatching at the same time. Hope this helps.

Okay that's what I thought. I have heard of people adding eggs weekly but they may have had a separate hatcher. Thanks for your help
