I received my eggs today, I'm afraid the air cells aren't in good shape. I'm struggling to see them well. I'm using a flashlight with 230 lumens.
I've got them resting fat end up and plan on setting them tomorrow morning.
I was thinking about putting them in the turner without plugging it in so they'll stay pretty upright. Maybe start slightly turning them on day 3?

Shipped eggs in front carton will be set the same time as mine (in a different bator) in the back of the pic.
I'm not going to let myslef fret too much. I'm going to do the best I can do and take notes and whatever happens happens.

HI everybody . busy day .P.D. I hope your not right about the air cells those are really dark eggs . my box candler is 425 and I have a hard time with those seeing air cells. could it be they are very fresh laid and are very small cells? if so and they are less than ten days old maybe you could let them sit another day before putting heat to them ? I don't think we have ever discussed doing that before . I know there has been much discussion about not turning them for a few days . I was just wondering what the thought was on that .

Hi there K! I was going to ask you where I can find that thread on making good a candler.
I can ask the seller how old he thinks they are. I know he shipped Monday.. they were delivered today.
I'll probably do more damage trying to find the air cells than treating them as if they were detached. I'm pretty sure I saw a couple very saddle shaped and movement in a few more. Very difficult to see though.
Maybe I could let them sit until I get home from work tomorrow. That'd be a full 24hrs.

Hey, BYC, a thought that just came to me after following the link... How much fudge could I swap you for a candler like Ravyn's?
