Mine always are a day early too, the broodies & those in the Incubators as well.
 
Ended up with 13, 8 are new year's Day babies. For some reason the bantums didn't do well with only 2 of 6 hatching, one pipped (wrong location) and didn't make it, two internal pips and the other couldn't tell.

Sometimes that happens! Congratulations!

You could be counting wrong! The day the eggs are set usually counts as day one
