Well, what about the turning schedule? With an auto turner..... well, you know the rest. I read that 3 - 4 times a day is what is needed. What about through the night? My hubby is going to throw me into the chicken coop if I have to get up and down 3 - 4 times all night for 3 weeks!!! I can do 4 times during the day, early morn, mid day, mid after and early evening... How about that?

You can put them back into the turner after 3 or 4 days.

3 to 4 times a day is good for turning manually

this has been very informative, lots of great advice on here. i think my incubator needs calibrating, i checked last night and the temp is running very low. so i am really worried if anything is going to hatch. i will be gutted if this happens.
i kept the eggs in a box for 24 hours to let them rest as i normally do. its now the waiting game.
