I have filled mine to the max before, but I usually do smaller hatches of 7-8 eggs. If you want to do 22 that works well though. Don't do a staggered hatch if you can help it. Set all of the eggs on the same day, don't add any. One thing I thought of, I may down that grippy shelf liner under the turner, on top of the tray. It helps the eggs turn better, and then at lockdown all you have to do is lift the turner out. Also, duck eggs are sometimes a bit big for the turner. Make sure you test the turner a few times to make sure it adequately turns them all.
I run my humidity at 40-45% for my duck eggs. You'll probably have to add a little bit of water in port A. Also, put in a separate hydrometer for a little while to make sure the built-in humidity guage is accurate. Don't leave any thermometers or hydrometers in the incubator while the turner is on though. It will knock them over and they could dent the eggs.

Ok that spunds great i have the unit on now warming up and close to temp I'm going to run it through tonight into tomorrow and whatever amount of eggs I get tomorrow and maybe Sunday morning, I will probably set all of them then on Sunday and hope for the best.

Thanks for all the tips I will keep things posted here as we go along.

That's weird. I don't have any idea why it would be doing that. Did you try to change it or something? @CluckNDoodle ?

No was like that this morning I just did a factory reset 2x and opened the humidity control fully and its working again i also called and left a message to manna pro maybe a code for a faulty humidity control. But seems stable now. I need one more egg from my chickens got 5 of 6 so hopefully the last lays today and I will have 22 and will start the batch hopefully tonight everything else seems good.

I did notice temps are hotter in the back left vs the front and front right especially. So ill keep a close eye on it.

Have you ever had to increase your temps to stay consistent?

Hm, Idk about the humidity thing. I'm glad you got it fixed though. The turner is nice because even if there's hot spots, the turner turns often enough they all get incubated evenly. I have my NR running at 101.5 right now because my calibrated thermometers were reading 97.5 before. It's at 99.5 now. Am I understanding your question correctly?
 
One tip, I had a brief power flicker, the lights flashed, but I didn’t even need to reset my clocks it was so fast. I didn’t notice until the next morning that the power going off, however brief, set the turner to be off, so just watch out for that.

Yup mine are reading a bit low 98.5 in the back down to 96.5 in the front right now , so I will prop bump it up to 100.5 and see what happens.


Thanks
