hatching eggs coming on different dates

[chkinut]

I just ordered some Black Copper Marans hatching eggs from 2 different people. One batch has an estimated delivery of Dec 18th, the other batch has a delivery of Jan 1st. i've hatched eggs before, but never with some needing to be in lockdown before other eggs. is this easily done?

hmmm what kind of incuabting system do you have?? how many bators???

it can be if you have two incubators. Otherwise, your first set will be needing to go into lockdown with a higher humidity than your second set. This could cause a lower development in your second set. Is there any way you could have the second set come a week later? that would be the best way to ensure your best hatch.
