Turning eggs

[Malikshahzad]

Next morning turn eggs

I am afraid when I open my incubator in morning for turning the eggs but when I touch the eggs they all are not warm ? Why ?

It depends on how many times you plan on turning them daily. Most people who hand turn their eggs do not turn them during the night. If you plan on turning them every so many hours, you should turn them the first time when that number of hours have passed.

Why my incubator eggs not warm when I touch them in morning for turning ?

I would guess that your thermometer is not correct, and your incubator is not warm enough. Did you calibrate your thermometer ?

Normal human body temperature is 98.6°F. The air temperature in a still air incubator is supposed to be measured level with the top of the eggs and is recommended that it be 101.5°F. That air temperature is going to be warmer than the eggs. The actual egg temperature is going to only be slightly warmer than your body temperature. If the eggs felt warm to you they would likely be too hot.

That is normal in still air incubators which is why it is recommended to move the eggs around in the incubator so they aren't always getting the cooler or hotter temperatures.
