I have four roosters and 20 hens

Has anyone did an experiment with turning by hand vs automatic turner? My eggs are on day 5 now with the turner and wondering if I should take out the turner and do it by hand.

I have a little giant incubator with egg turner and fan. I only get about 50% hatch rate, with most of the unhatched eggs being unfertile. Would I get better results with hand turning the eggs?
