Incubator Hatching
« on: March 23, 2013, 11:26 »
Hi ladies and gents,

Can I just ask what you guys hold the eggs in in the inccy?

I brought 6 banty eggs which seems less that the inncy actually could hold, so when I turn them they move about a bit. Is there anything I can do to stop it?

I did think of putting some scrunshed up news paper rolled into balls to take up some of the space but wasnt sure if this was a good idea or not.

What do you do please?

Thanks
Toni

Try putting them on an old clean faceflannel
I love my traditional clean legged English Cuckoo Marans

I used to use the cheap non slip matting stuff from el cheapo shops like Poundland.   But hasn't your incy got a rack of some sort to sit the eggs in?

Just make sure you don't block any air intake holes - I have never seen one of those inccies close to  ;)
