Hi! Am about to try out my eco 20 for the first time. I keep getting mixed messages. When you place the eggs do you lay them on there sides? Or pointed down? I have mine set on the auto turn cradle if that makes any difference.

Smart! Thank you for the tips!Like Yorkshire coop said, I also set pointy end down in an upright position. I will candle at day 18 and lay them on their side. Last hatch I tried incubation on the side the whole way through as an experiment and had quite a few pip in the middle of the egg or at the wrong end--not into the aircell as I expected and my hatch rate was lower. So back to this: I use plastic Easter eggs as spacers in the ends so the eggs don't fall over.
