TURNING THE EGGS!

[Vmuss13]

So I ordered 6 chicken eggs because that how many fit in my automatic turner inside my incubator but they accidentally gave me 10 eggs so I couldn’t fit them in the automatic turner! I was not prepared for this but at the same time I didn’t want to give the eggs back for the fear that no one would hatch them and they would get tossed away. So I took out the automatic turner in the incubator and now I have to self turn them. Any Tips? How many times a day should I turn them? How long is it ok to have the incubator open?

Turn them 3 times a day. The longest you can keep the incubator open is 20 minutes at the most.

I like to turn 5x a day for the first week and 3x the next week. I stop turning on day 14. It becomes unnecessary after then.
