So...

We have a brinsea 56 ex incubator. First time hatching, got a bunch of chicken eggs AND a bunch of keet eggs... didn't think anything about it.

Except all eggs went in same time....

Suggestions for what to do for chick incubator lockdown??? Don't worry about keet eggs not rotating? Remove chick eggs and their rows of rotators putting in bottom and leaving keet eggs and rotator still on? What about the increase in moisture rate? Keep keets in a small container within the incubator?

Anyone else this silly or do this commonly and have a magical system that works?

Okay so even though it's the chicken eggs lockdown, which to my understanding means you close the lid and don't touch, you still open and just move the guinea eggs?
Lockdown, oh sweet lockdown. Lots of interpretations. But yes you can still open the incubator to turn the guinea eggs. It won’t harm a thing, except humidity slightly (even still, not much if any) but you can just add water to make it level back out.
