What should the egg turning settings be?

Product Information

The 'egg turning interval' as it is called on some incubators - which is how often or how frequently they turn-  is up to you. You can have then turn as often as you want, as long as they are being turned at least 3-4 times a day.

The 'egg turning angle' depends on the size of the egg. You will need to experiment with the settings on your incubator to find the correct angle. Some incubators show the angle in seconds (how long it turns for). The smaller the egg, the less time they want to turn for. The larger the egg, the longer they want to turn for. You want the seconds to be set so that the egg turns 180°. TIP: 'the Higher the seconds are, the Longer the turn.'

On machines which have the angle as angles for example on the Rcom 20 and Rcom 50 PRO, you set the angle from 45° up to 180° at 15° intervals (based on a typical hen-egg size). Same as with the settings: the smaller the egg, the more it will turn. If, for example, you have small eggs, in order for them to turn 180°, it may want to be set at a 90° angle. We do recommend that you test this and find the correct angle before setting your eggs.

Some rare and exotic breeds do have to be turned a specific amount of times or more frequently and is recommended they are turned by a certain amount. Ensure you do your research beforehand if you are incubating rare or exotic eggs to make sure you know exactly how much they need to be turned and the angle they need to be turned at. This also helps with choosing the right machine.
