Effects of Short Periods of Incubation During Egg Storage (SPIDES) in Prolonged Stored Eggs of Late DeKalb Breeder on Hatchability, Embryonic Mortality and Chick Quality
Published: April 23, 2021
Summary
INTRODUCTION The storage of hatching eggs is a common routine in hatcheries and varying in duration depending on hatchery capacity and the demand of day old chicks (Gharib, 2013). In some cases, the need of extending the period of storage more than seven days may takes place. Hatching eggs are stored, generally, to minimize transport cost or to collect enough eggs for high capacity incubators....

thanks for great research
please just summarize in few lines that on small scale poultry setup which incubation periods and how many days should be practiced where environment night temperature is 8-10 C AND DAY TEMPERATURE is 25-30 in December

In conclusion, short periods of incubation during egg storage daily for 4- 9 days
for 60- 120 minutes at 37.5° C and 53% RH could be used by the poultry industry as a method to improve hatchability
Other pages I read said to put the eggs in 100degF incubator until the shell reaches 90degF so they say six hours. But of course the time would depend on the starting temp.
I'd guess it's like a chicken laying on eggs each day for a little while to lay another egg.
We are basically mimicking what happens in nature, it seems.
