I'm on day 6 of incubation, I have to leave for the weekend and I'll be away from the incubator for 2.5 days.

Curious about if people experienced anything similar and how it may affect hatch rates 😬
 
At day 6 it's going to impact your hatch rates pretty seriously. The first few days of incubation are the most important. Turning the eggs keeps the embryos from sticking to the membrane inside the egg. Without turning you raise the risk of early embryo death and malpositions . I agree with @Ceciliasflock that you should get an auto turner.
