Transporting incubator in middle of incubation.

[Josip]

So I ask can I transport incubator in middle of incubation process.
I already put egss in incubator few days ago and for 10 days we go in our house in mountain. It's just 30 min driving but we will stay there two weeks so is it ok to transport incubator at around 13/14 day of incubation for just 30 max 40 Min till I turn him on again.

So last year we did a hatch in a janoel 24; we didn't think about timing and we had 2 duck eggs in there with 10 chicken eggs and we were going on holiday to my mums. We were like day 14 and we travelled over 500 miles to my mums with the eggs in the incubator. It was switched on in the car by a special plug thing off amazon and we ended up with 7/10 chicks and 1/2 duckling.

Often hens will step away from their eggs to eat and drink. My bator has a 1 hour cooling cycle built in to account for this. So in short you should be fine.
