Tonight, for the first time, all the EHAL chicks PUT THEMSELVES TO BED ON THEIR ROOSTS!!!!! ALL BY THEMSELVES!!!! 



(Added benefit, I did not have to kneel in chicken poop to gather each one from the coop floor and place on the roost.)

My babies are growing up!!!!

48 hours, more if you count settle time. The sapphires are the worst, but I have little hope for them as I see the yellow haze I have seen on other scrambled eggs in the past. :/

Can you hand turn the worst ones? If not ya might as well fire up the turner so that the other ones don't get buggered.

I'm guessing you are talking about shipped eggs.....So I let mine sit 18-24 hours then put in the incubator with the turner on.

Don't have room..... Unless, I took out the auto turner and turned them all by hand? Most days I am gone for most of midday, how important is regular turning, or can I stretch it out a bit?

Yep! I did let them sit for 24ish hours before setting.
