Different hatch dates??????

Long story short, my broody stopped sitting half way so I rushed the eggs into the incubator. 2of 1 kind looks like it will be ready on time this Friday. BUT the 3 polish are developing slower. Still developing but maybe another week after these.
I only have the 1 incubator and no more broody hens.
Will they survive the lockdown???????????

I just recently hatched duck eggs. We had kinda the same thing happen. Our duck hatched a baby and the others were a week behind. We successfully hatched 2 a week later. The other 2 we are unsure. How many eggs doubly have?

Sorry in a bator we hatched the 2

 

[smcdermott]

There are 2 this week and 4 next week

Well I think you should be fine but I'm not an expert

My last hatch (first in several years) was staggered over about 5 days, ironically the last put in the incubator had the best hatch percentage. I was encouraged by others to just do it. I have eggs going in the same way this time, hoping for a better result (new genesis bator)

Good luck!
