First batch I think is looking good!

I have definitely given up on the candeler that is on my incubator. (Impeckables 12 cap) but I did manage to finally see veins at the roughly ten day mark. My issue now is I'm a newb and have mixed start dates because I got a lot of my info from a neighbor who also hasn't had a lot of experience hatching and she was also doing her eggs in mixed batches.

My question is, I know I'm supposed to vent and adjust humidity during the last three days because I finally did independent research, which I should have done in the first place. Will this adjustment have a negative effect on the newer eggs?

Thanks in advance.

Usually staggered hatches are best done with two incubators so you can move the ones going to lockdown to the second incubator with the higher humidity, and the rest stay at the same humidity.

Since you have them in one, I'd split the difference of the 70% humidity and do 60%. That could make hatching harder, but it shouldn't drown the rest of them.
