I'm too new at hatching to know that answer!! I have two BO babies out, and four more have pipped...

Oh, they are so cute!!!

I love fuzzy butts!!! Now, I have three GLW that have pipped... but they haven't zipped yet. They are apparently going to make me wait in eager anticipation!!!!

You should ideally have 2 incubators when doing staggered hatches! One for incubating (day 1-18) and one for hatching (day 18 - hatch)!You do need to turn the other eggs and doing it during lockdown could compromise the ones in lockdown! If you only have one bato then turn the other eggs as quickly and carefully as you can and get out of there!

Well they can make it to hatching without a lock down obviously... This one did fine! I lost track of which one it was..... Guess I will still go ahead and turn like I was doing...... see how it works for me.......Since I don't have but one incubator. Here's my baby all dry!
