I know not the right place but hopefully someone can answer this.

So the guy I am hatching for wanted to give me more eggs to replace any duds. But that would mean starting them 5-7 days after these ones. I only have one incubator so I would need to put those ones in lockdown and up the humidity around day 14-16 for them. That is too early right?

I’ve heard a lot of people saying it’s not a big deal to go a few days early

I know a few days early is ok. with this past hatch I added some in 2 days later and wasn't worried about that but wasn't sure about 5-7 days early.....

how are the eggs doing? I need to check back in.

I had to start a second Live, I guess 8 hours is the max Egg #3 is starting to zip! #2 was stressing me, but is moving again and opening up a bit more
