how can I stop my eggs from roll

[hunterblu123]

This is my first time hatching eggs. I bought a LG incubator and I'm hand turning them. How can I keep them from rolling on the wire? And when its time to hatch what should I put the eggs in the stay cleaner?

I recently starting using the clear berry baskets, they are see through, have ventation holes and you can put up to 6 chicken eggs in each. this way if I have certain parentage I want to mark, they are not mixed with the other babies.

what about the drawer/shelf liner?

If you are hand turning, the eggs are on their side. I would use the toilet roll method



when you go into lock down I tilt the fat end up a little for the air sac. This works great
