Just out of curiousity, I set 6 eggs that were laid over three weeks prior. I rotated the carton most days, but forgot now and then especially once they hit the 10 day old mark.
I did not use any thermometer once the temp was set nor did I use a humidity gauge in my Brinsea Octogon 20. I was keeping it simple and letting it do what it does and not stressing over it since these were old eggs...oh, and one day our power went out, and I sent the bator over to my mother's, then brought it back the next day.
At any rate, I just had 5 out of 6 hatch...pretty crazy, huh?
