hmm..i thought if you set the eggs early in the morning it DID count as Day 1 and if you set them later in the day/evening/night is was considered "setting". Thats what I read anyway. I'm actually doing a test. I set one batch at 8am and another at 8pm..so i'll see which one hatches on the 21st day for each batch.

This is a good calender:It's not mine, I got it from a site. I love it though! I'm using it with my broody.
