Starting Over Again

[merrymutts]

Took the last 4 eggs out of the incubator...knew nothing was going to happen with them and wanted to get another batch started.

One was a Dud ( not fertilized ) and 3 were dead in the shell.

So, incubator is cleaned out and all and I have a dozen eggs ready to start. Will do those Tuesday as I want the last 3 to settle a bit before beginning the process again.

Settle them in a sterile carton, pointed end down. Place them on a tilt. Change the tilt direction at least twice a day. Store them in a cool/non sun light location. I use a cooler with a single blue ice pack and swap it out for a cold one each day.
Candle them prior to resting them. Checking the shells integrity for cracks and soft spots.
