Shipped eggs,detached air cells, turn or not before setting?

There is a really good thread in here called diary & notes- detached air cells of SHIPPED eggs, it's usually one of the top threads incubating & hatchings eggs. But Sally sunshine the one who wrote the article & started the thread just gave me advice on this and she told me this.....
If they are already old eggs I would set directly in a carton with bottoms cut out and place in the bator to beging the process, fat end up of course.and keep them in the carton (carton flat) DONT TURN or touch them for 48-72 hours and then start tilting like your pic but in the bator. Tilting GENTLY 45 degrees until your 14 day candle and then if any are viable and air cells are attatched I would lay them on day 18 for hatching. I would try to candle in the carton without handling them too much too. at least till day 10.
I had mine in an egg carton to keep the fat end upright since I hand turn. If you have any questions go to that thread & Sally or someone else will help you out, they even have good advice on hatching if your cells don't reattach. But I wouldn't turn for at least 48hrs, I waited 72 & at 5 of my 9 eggs reattached! Hope this helps a little & good luck with your hatch!

 

I just saw that u got them on Monday so I would not turn one more day & make sure they are fat end up always! But as the days go by not incubating your hatch rate is dwindling especially since they were shipped & have detached air cells so I would set them tomorrow. Oh yeah and make sure you start up your incubator to let like run for at least 12hrs before you set them so you have an even temp & humidity. I have my fingers crossed!

 

I had all air cells dislodge and none developed. 2nd shipped egg experience a few with bad cells are developing! But like I read here....don't set on sides, put in egg carton and after a few days turn 3x day at 45 or less angle. Read the air cell threads...very good advice. Good luck
