Wanting to incubate eggs.

Never done it before. I got an incubator for my birthday and will probably put eggs into it next week some time. I want to know everything and give me all the tips you have.

I have an automatic egg turner should it be plugged in for the first 24 hours that the eggs are placed into the incubator or no?

Yes mam, the turner should be on for the first 18 days that the chicken eggs are in the incubator...
