Eggs in the incubator should be turned at least 3-5 times a day to prevent the embryo from sticking to the shell membrane. It is recommended to turn the eggs an odd number of times to ensure they are not left in the same position for too long.
Turning is literally that - eggs are turned during incubation. Incubated by the parent, the bird randomly shuffles the eggs around beneath it several times a day. In an incubator eggs are mechanically turned-over around, typically once every hour. Early in incubation, moving the eggs brings the embryo into contact with a fresh area of the surface of the yolk, the food for the embryo. Turning has other effects later in incubation.
i think you mean an incubator it is a small box shaped machine which fertile hen eggs are put into instead of hatching under the hen you plug it in and put the eggs in it turning them each day for 19 days the eggs should hatch on the 21st day
Incubate at a constant temperature of 99.5F (or a range from 99-102F). Turn the eggs several times a day (an odd number so that eggs come to rest at a different position at the end of each day) from days 1-18. Stop turning at day 18, so that the chicks can position themselves for hatching. Hatch day is usually on day 21, but environmental factors (as well as the chicken breed) can affect the hatch date (usually hatch on day 19-23).
Turnig eggs when they are incubating is important so that the egg is incubated evenly and the embryo does not get stuck to the shell membrane. It has been proven that more turning equals better hatching. This is best carried out automatically, but a minimum of three to five times in 24 hours is recommended if turning by hand. Some incubators are semi-automatic which means you push a leaver, turning the eggs on a grid. This is preferable to handling each egg because losing temperature and possibly introducing undesirable bacteria from your hands. Other kinds of incubators are fully automatic, and have a process which turns the eggs continuously.

Yes, turning the egg is natures way of centering the yolk in the albumen as it develops. The egg can be turned more often without ill effects but at least twice per day for 18 days is recommended.
Usually in the early morning, but they have been known to lay at other times of the day or night.

How many times do grandparents do things for you? They do alot! So on grandparents day we honor and respect what they do for us. We LOVE You!
All chicken eggs take 21 days to hatch. The temperature is 100 degrees and the eggs must be turned three times per day.
