I have been told by the incubator to put the eggs pointed down and then i heard from somone here that it should be the other way around. I have also been told to have the airsac in the egg should be on the big side and mine are on the pointedside. so what side should be down in the turner?
You need to have the pointed end down......the aircell should be in the big end of the egg. If your's are truly in the pointed end you have a problem.
The eggs should be placed pointy end down, and the air cell should be on the large end. How were they stored? Were they shipped? If they were shipped then the air cells have been detached. That is the only way I would think an air cell could get detached is through shipping.
Well i might have made a mistake because the air cell could be at the top and the space at the pointed end could be the extra space. but i do have them pointed end down and they were not shipped they are from my new turkeys.
Good luck with your turkeys. I just hatched three, but had some trouble and lost one because of my humidity being too low. Someone told me about this site it may be of help to you. Sending good hatching vibes your way. http://www.porterturkeys.com/egghatchingtips.htm
