I have 11 silkie eggs and 7 olive Eggers left in the incubator. I recently read that bantam breeds should go into lockdown at 16 days and I know other eggs are day 18. These are 14 days today. Should I lockdown early because three are silkies? Maybe day 17 rather than 18?
 
I frequently hatched silkies along with my standard layers. They have always hatched on day 21 with all of the others. You should be fine.
 
Ok excellent. That's what I assumed but wanted to check for certain. Thanks!
