I'm not sure if this is anything I should be concerned about or not, but I just read today that darker eggs should not be incubated with lighter eggs because they require different humidity. If that is correct, what should I do?
I put 22 eggs in the incubator. 12 were light blue (Americauna )and 10 were light and dark brown (Sapphire gems). They went into lockdown Monday and I still had 18 after removing a few that were not fertilized. Today is hatch day and my blue eggs are hatching, five so far, but now I'm worried about the brown eggs. Two of them have pipped but none have hatched yet. I have an incubator set up next to this incubator, same thing, nurture right 360 and it has been going since yesterday in case anything happened and I needed to move any chicks. So my question is, should I move the current chicks that have hatched into the other incubator which means I would have to open the one they are in, and turn the humidity down for the darker eggs? Will that hurt whatever Blue eggs that haven't hatched?
