New to incubating and auto egg Turner

Date sort Score sort
Two of them are from a Dominique I just bought and bred her with one of my side island reds so I guess it will be like a black sex link because of the female barred gene but it won't be the traditional black sex link....abd then three of them are a green egg that I bought from a farmer that he said he got from a pin with a variety of green egg layers bred with a unknown rooster...so Idk what they are....abd the other one is a unknown bantam egg
 
While it's not the best situation, you're only staggered by 2 days, so you should be ok. but, please, before an other day passes, read the info on dry incubation. You may want to go that route, and drop your humidity to around 30% until lock down. Many folks, including myself, are sold on that method. Your doms will produce lovely sex linked birds. I love my doms!

At what age do barred rocks normally lay eggs...cuz I'm ready to start incubating those as this test run is over
 
Thank you I didn't know that.....but yeah I planned on collecting some of there eggs first to eat abd then start to incubate but I was only going to wait like the first week ...so how long do you recommend to wait
 
Also I been feeding my girls the laying pellets for the last two weeks to prepare them for laying but Ijust read it shouldn't be used until they lay first egg is this true...is this bad for my girls since there only 4 months old
