My dad gave me 6 goose eggs. I put them in the bator this morning. I have them in a LG 9200 with a fan. I want to make sure i have this right. Temp is holding steady.

Temp- 99.5
Humidity-65% for the first 25 days
Humidity- 85% day 26 to hatch
Day 1 to 4- only turn
Day 5 to 25- cool down for 15 min. and mist
Day 26 to hatch-mist untill they pip.
Turn 3 times a day.

If one pips do i mist the others till they pip also or leave them alone. Also when they say mist is it just a light mist. And would a cool down be best if is done at the same time every day.
 
I would say your information on everything looks ideal. I would mist until they are all pipped. (I used a clean washcloth dampened with warm water and just rubbed it over mine.) A cool down at the same time everyday would make it all simpler to keep on schedule, at least it is for me.
Good luck!
