Egg turning question

[Texas T]

   I was wondering if it would hurt to stop turning coturnix eggs at day 12 or would it be better to leave them until day 15? I have to be out of town on day 14 so I will have to do it early or one day later. Any recommendations would be helpful.

Cortunix eggs need to be turned through the 14th day.  You can stop turning them if you must, but it may affect your hatch rate.  You will still certainly get some to hatch, but maybe not as many as normal and maybe some with problems.

Thanks,

I always leave mine until the 15th day.  Works well for me.
