My thoughts on the egg carton hatch method.

I've had great hatches both ways but am impressed by results I've
had with the egg carton method. I use egg cartons the entire time.


The only fair way to test it is to hatch several batches of the same
eggs with half in cartons and half on their sides. Then review the
results.

I may use both and try to keep track of which gives better results.

I did exactly that with a batch of quail. Both were in the same bator.
The hatch rate for the cartons was MUCH higher and a day sooner.

I use a Brinsea so the eggs stand up in the trays anyways.
