Lesley Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 Hello - and welcome to the forum. Are they duck or hen eggs? With hen eggs, you stop turning 2 days before hatching so that the chicks can start to make their way out of the egg. If you have duck eggs, I presume it will be the same - I'll have to look in the book though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
