Hatching eggs got refrigerated by accident

[4cchicken]

So my jubilee orpington and crested cream legbar hatching eggs got mixed up with my mixed flock eggs while I was out of town working, and got put in the fridge for six days while the mix got put in the incubator. When I got home and realized what had happened I sat out the orpington and legbar eggs overnight aND put them in the incubator 4 days after the mixed were set in. Now 4 days later (8 days for mixed] I candles the eggs and all 4 dozen are developing nicely..question is what to do with two dozen eggs with a 4 day later hatch date from the other two dozen?
