My kids are homeschooled as well, and we just got 21 eggs today to hatch in this same incu. I thought it would be a great learning experience for them! 😊 We're all excited. Thanks for the video!

tip down fat side up causes the embryo to orient so its head is at the wider part of the egg making it easier later on when the chick hatches for it to spin around and open the egg. Higher humidity in the last three days makes itt easier for the chick to break out of the shell but I'm not convinced it matters any other times. Chickens hatch in Maine and in Arizona and in New Orleans naturally and those areas have vastly different hunidity levels.

If you have a rooster with them, I would wait for 6-8 weeks after they start laying there first eggs. Good luck!

Interesting! I will probably have to do something like this even though I never raised chickens. I heard that I can't have any in my yard but if people can have dogs and cats as pets. .I can have chickens. Will see! One day! Hugs

I have the same incubator and turner. With that turner, do you need to flip the eggs or turn them at all during the first 18 days? Or just let the turner do it all?

Thanks for watching! Just let the egg turner do its job. (as long as you've seen it turning the eggs several times a day).

Thanks for watching Djmang! Depending on the incubator you have start them at 99.5 to 100 degrees for a forced air incubator. 101 to 102 degrees for a still air incubator. Good luck!

Is it recommended to put the incubator on a towel? I set mine on a flat counter top
@farmmom7140

I set my incubator on a towel just in case my water moat inside gets overfilled. You just want to make sure where the incubator vent holes are that the towel is not compromising air flow. It's important that you don't block the vent holes. They let fresh oxygen in, while taking carbon dioxide out! Good luck!

So what happens when the hatched chicks knock around the unhatched eggs won’t they die being turned and packed together?
@farmmom7140
3 жыл бұрын
There is no need to worry. It will not affect the unhatched chicks. There is evidence that the eggs being moved by the already hatched chicks, and there chirping , encourages the other chicks to start pipping and unzipping out of the egg shell.

Hi farm mom, just wondering can you still hatch chicken eggs if they were in the fridge?
@farmmom7140
4 жыл бұрын
Good morning Michelle, thanks for watching my video. Yes you can have success with hatching eggs that have been in the refrigerator. There is a few guidelines to follow though. If your storing the eggs in the fridge make sure your eggs are skinny end down in the carton (not the round end). Also if possible set your fridge temp closer to 50 degrees. You can store them for 7-10 days. After that your chances of the egg being viable decreases. You also want to flip your carton over every 12 hours . (I was flipping mine once in the morning and back over in the evening). This helps prevent the embryo from sticking to the shell membrane. Good luck, and keep me posted if you start incubating your eggs!

Thanks for watching! No, most of your supermarket eggs are not fertile. Also you wouldn't know how long they were stored or kept. You might be able to find a local farmer selling fresh fertile chicken eggs. Good luck.
