June hatch-a-long!

Three times a day is okay, but more is better. Still keeping the number of times you turn them odd.

Thank you, I'll do it as often as I can, I need to try and persuade my husband to do it when I'm at work!

4 of the eggs are from my ayam cemani and I haven't managed to incubate a fertile one of those yet, so I may be able to get the egg turner back in there after the 7 day candling if I have to discard a few.

This batch is just warren and ayam cemani eggs (plus one that I'm not sure who layed it) because I haven't had any dorking eggs for about 3 weeks. I was a bit disappointed as it's really the Dorkingx we wanted to be breeding. But my husband has just told me he's found the nest wedged behind a bush and under a hedge with loads of eggs in it! So at least I know they are laying! Trouble is, we're going to have to cut the bush down to collect the eggs!
