Hatch timing

[ga_goat]

I read on here last week that silkies and certain bantom breeds usually hatch a couple of days earlier than std breeds , I used the search but could not refind the post , I have a batch going to the hatching tray on the 21st and 9 of them are silkie , should I move those tomorrew at 16 days to the hatcher or just waite for the rest of them ?

I would wait for the rest of them.... but that's just me. Sure as shootin', if I PLANNED on something hatching early, I'd be wrong.

go on as a 21 day hatch, my last silkies came off on day 21-22, it all depends on the temp in your bator, running high, hatch early, running low, hatch late.
