Easiest way to tell if they are fertile is to crack a couple open and look for the bullseye. If it’s there, start whenever you want.

Do you have any pictures of an bullseye

Nope but I bet there are 416,373 of them on google. Seriously I don’t but I will go out on a limb that there are some really good ones there.

Do an on site search on 'Bulls Eye Fertility' - threads/pictures should come up.

If you’re eggs look like the bottom egg, start incubating whenever you like.

If you're just wanting to test your incubator, clean it, plug it in, turn it on, adjust the temp. Use a separate thermometer to confirm the temp is accurate. Hatching can take a bit of experience to get the hang of it, so don't expect to just toss eggs in, turn it on, then return the incubator after you do a quick hatch in it.
