Scattered hatch date--can't stop turning eggs

[-Shade-]

Yes eggs will hatch in a turner with no problems

I think that is the same incubator we are using now

That is cool, however I can imagine some chicks getting their feeties stuck in between the rows?

I am happy to report that all 5 eggs hatched and all 5 chicks are healthy, happy, and beyond addorable.

Fantastic news, what did you decide to do? A second incubator set up as a lockdown incubator is a great way to do these staggered hatchings. I have seen a few videos suggesting not turning eggs to make little to no difference in hatch rates, not tested it for myself though.

I moved them into a separate incubator. I noticed that all the eggs were pipped before I went to bed, and I woke up to 3 chicks already out of the eggs. The other 2 hatched about the same time a couple of hours later.
