Hatch Week!

I took the eggs out of the automatic turner on Sunday morning and placed them flat on the mesh grid. The eggs need to remain flat for 3 days before the hatch process begins. The temperature and humidity levels are maintaining. Hopefully we should see some cracks appearing on the eggs by late Tuesday night or Wednesday!
