So I know I did this completely wrong but I ordered eggs off eBay and one of my orders was delayed. So some eggs got put in a whole week and a half before the others. So now my dilemma is what to do with the eggs that are a week behind. Since I will be having to take the automatic turner out. I also currently have Peacock eggs in my other incubator that won’t be done before then so I’m wondering if it would be bad to keep them in at the 60% humidity with the peacocks for a few days until I can move them back or if that will ruin chances of hatching. Just trying to get the best plan so I’m prepared. I’ve contemplated getting a whole new incubator letting it set up and moving the new ones but I’d like to avoid spending more money if possible. Any thoughts?
 
With the last batch of chicks we hatched, we added three more eggs five days after the first and in the end they all hatched. We took out the automatic turned on the 19th day of the first batch and it didn’t seem to cause any harm to other three eggs. If you have the time, then I would say to just turn the later eggs by hand for a couple days. Then again, we didn’t, and every thing ended up fine.
