Why do you need to turn the eggs?

[littlebantams]

Just curious to know what would happen if you didn't turn the eggs when incubating?

The embryo can stick to the side of the shell and die. After day 12 the chick can move on its own so it's not as big of a deal if you don't turn them.

Hey, that's interesting. I didn't know that, but it makes sense.
