Okay, everything I've read has blown out the other ear.....
Just remind me: Tonight I am going to remove the eggs from the turner. I guess I'm going to put them in an egg carton. My questions are:
1. Can I leave the top off the 'bator long enough to fashion a bit of tubing through the vent hole for adding water if necessary? Shouldn't take long....Actually since the turner will be gone, I can probably fish this tubing down even after I put the top back on ....hmmm...
2. Do I remember correctly that I should/can put a couple of layers of cheese cloth on top of the hardware cloth? I guess what I'm looking for (if I can't find my cheesecloth) is just some quite loosely woven fabric to buffer them from the wire?
3. And then fill another or all of the water troughs?
I candled last night, and of my 12 eggs, two were clear, one was kicking, and the other 9 were inscrutable to the beginner that I am. They have good air sacks and definitely dark development below, but .... the rest will be what it will be.
