I foolishly ordered hatching eggs from three different locations to hatch at one time. One set was somewhere in "post office limbo" for 5 days so arrived three days after the other two sets were started in the incubator. I let them rest and added them to my Hova-bator 1588.
My plan was to have a second hatcher bator when day 18 arrived for the first eggs. Problem...buy another 1588 (most expensive option) try a brinsea eco ( which interests me as an incubator but don't know if it is big enough for the chicks to hatch in) or try an LG from Tractor Supply to use as a hatch only (only $41). I have heard such horror stories about the LG.
I am new at this and don't anticipate hatching millions of eggs but don't want to sacrifice eggs to save just a little money.
ADVICE WELCOME!!
