Best Results From Small Incubators and Hens for Chick Hatching
University Farm experts in St. Paul Minnesota recommend using small incubators filled with eggs from breeding pens and transferring early fertile eggs to broody hens at candling. After disinfection the incubators are refilled and hens complete incubation in about 21 days, producing many chicks of the same age. A 100 egg incubator with hens can hatch about 400 fertile eggs in 21 days.

Way to Keep Eggs for Hatching
The best method to keep eggs for hatching is to pack them small end down in an egg case and turn them daily if kept longer than a week. Fill the case, top it, and rotate on its side then back upright the next day, with sides alternated. Some keep eggs on their sides in a box and still turn daily.
Incubator setup advice before incubating eggs
Run the incubator a few days before placing eggs inside to regulate temperature and reduce hazards. Do not worry if the temperature drops after loading eggs as cool eggs absorb heat. If the lamp is raised high at this time the eggs may be cooked before regulation stabilizes.
