Question on incubating eggs after ordering through the mail

[joyous]

When you get fertile eggs in the mail, how long do you let them "settle" before putting them in the incubator?

Some ppl hold them for 24 hours. I have never done that before. You could search the topic.

I always leave them to settle for 24 hours, pointy end down, to let the embryo settle.
I leave them in an egg box by the side of the incubator to achieve room temperature,then pop them onto the incubator to heat up with it.
This usually works well,
