[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 213481"] Yes sir...the incubator will turn the eggs automatically but a lot of times we like to turn them ourselves just to be extra careful...the writing on the eggs are important...I believe one in the picture says A-14..."A" is the pasture it came from...we do not keep all the ostriches in the same closed in space because they do get mad at each other and they do hold a grudge...we can then put the little booger back in the right pasture after it hatches...the 14 shows that this egg was the 14th egg to be taken from pasture A this year so far...there is really no need to keep track of the date because it only takes around 40 or so days until they bust out of that shell :D ...we can usually just keep all of the dates in our heads...and Yes they sometimes will hatch their own eggs...we only take the eggs if we feel the mother is doing a insufficient job at taking care of the eggs...and we will take them from new mothers just to make sure she is having good healthy offspring...we never use our shells for carving or anything like that but I believe some people do...I know that some people ask for ostrich eggs so they can paint on them and sell them as crafts Dont be sorry about so many questions...it's my pleasure to answer them...Thanks for the questions and the comments :) Have a good day [/QUOTE]
