My egg turner

[Ken H]

Made a manual egg turner that works without opening the incubator. A couple pieces of sheet metal and a coat hanger is all that is involved. Made a tray with 1/2" sides all around the bottom half of an egg carton. A straighten length of cloths hanger was soldered to the bottom and ran through a sheet metal frame. The cloths hanger goes through the incubator wall and is bent at a 90 degree angle. Now when it's time to rotate the eggs, I turn the egg tray 45 degrees to the left or 45 degrees to the right, giving me a 90 degree rotation.
This is my first attempt at hatching eggs and am also very new at caring for chickens. Any advice or help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

cool idea

I'll have to remb that if I ever decide I am up to the task of building a incubator and actually hatching.
