did you hand hatch by choice? Or did they all need help? Can't wait to see pics!

Question for everyone = my first inbubator hatch (hatch of any kind LOL). I have six eggs that need to be put on lockdown Saturday and that leaves 18 in the 1588 bator staggered over three additional days.

Do I take the turner out on the 18th day (for the first 6) and hand turn the rest of the eggs - not touching the first six?

Looking forward to Christmas Day and the next 3 days after, thanks for your replies in advance,

Brick being dropped on them kinda took my choice out of it :/

Id take then out of the turner and leave the others turning. You dont want to have to be opening it during lockdown. Youll also want to make sure your humidity doesnt go super high and drown the rest of the developing eggs

i,m on day 21 today, no pips no nothing.These eggs are cream crested legbar, when they arrived as i,d bought them of ebay, it looked like the posties had been playing football with them.

The corner of the poly box was damaged and they had put them in a plastic bag along with a letter of apology.I really don,t think they are going to do anything.,wether it,s a gut feeling or not I,ve had trouble candling them with them being blue eggs and my torch not being fantastic,

i,ve havn,t seen any devolpment of any desciption.So here,s to praying for a miracle
