 Question for the breeders.

Okay I have two incubators one i have converted into a taller one by using the parts from one that i had quit working on me last year, and the other is normal sized. I have one clutch of 25 incubating in the taller one right now they are due to hatch around the 26th of this month Well the mother of this clutch is due to lay again no later than the 25th, and my ghost girl is due no later than the 27th, I also have a snow motley that is in her pre-lay shed right now. Plus an anery and an amel that are due to lay within the next 3 weeks. This makes another 5 clutches within about 3 weeks of each other. If the 1st clutch doesnt hatch before the others start to arrive im going to move them to the smaller incubator, so that I have more space for the others.

My question is, I cant find any containers that would fit together in the incubator with out having to be stacked, so would it be okay to stack them on top of one another just for a week or two, (until the feed store got some more incubators in)? Then I could buy another one or two incubators and seperate the clutches. Sorry for the long back story, I just wanna know before I come home to a bunch of eggs that I cant find room for in my incubators. Thanks, Andrew.

 Question for the breeders.

Never had the need to stack tubs always had enough incubators running to accommodate my egg expectations .
You may have to email one of the big breeders and ask them .
If you do so a little more info as to what type of inc it is and how it heats up may help, temp gradients between top and bottom of the inc may be different which may affect the eggs development .
Let us know how you get on anyway.
