Fresh eggs incubating?

[komer]

Hi all,i have some problems in my mind,as far i read forums,magazines,and listen to other gamebird breeders,many times ive heard that it is not good to put fresh eggs in incubator.Is that true?Ive heard that for stability albumen and yolk is 10 days,so eggs are stored for 10 days before incubating...Who has know more about that?

Fresh eggs incubate just fine.

Never heard or read that you have to wait.

Normally, one would wait 7-10 days before starting a new batch in the incubator, to avoid a pile up at the hatcher.

Also never had a problem with fresh eggs.
Depending on hatch days for eggs of species you have.
Most of our birds are within 2 days hatch time
Our process is set eggs every Saturday hatch starts on Saturday and is finished by Monday not counting the first Saturday as one of the 21 to 23 days for quail.
Good luck
