staggered hatch with one incubator

[lemondsm]

I have eggs on day 11 in the incubator. A friend offered me 12 eggs because thy have too many and they are just going to toss them if I don't want them. I was wondering if I took them what would I do when I lock down the first batch. I do not have a turner. What do you think? Any suggestions? Should I not even bother?

Hmmm.. you would need another bator. 70-80% is wayyy too much for eggs not on lockdown.

That's what I was thinking but sometimes I am surprised at some of the creative things people come up with on here. Thank you.

I agree - another bator.

Put "staggered hatch" into the search box and you may get some ideas....I just read one.. where a lady did it a few times by misting the eggs that were hatching with a spray bottle of water and hand turning for a few days for the ones that are not ready yet.....hope this helps....
