I recently got 6 duck eggs and 25 chicken eggs. I decided to incubate them together in the same incubator (I know that ducks take longer). So only 1 duck egg made it and 5 chicken eggs. So since the duck has to stay in the incubator and be turned longer, I kept my egg turner in there. At the very bottom of the egg turner, there is a little open space which is big enough for the eggs to hatch in. I put them down there and got excited for day 20 to come! So today is day 20. No pipping at all. I checked the temperature and it was 93-95 degrees in there (it felt a lot hotter though). Thinking my temperature was off, I quickly (without harming any eggs or moving them too quickly) took the turner out and placed the duck and chicken eggs carefully in the center of the incubator. Did this screw it all up?
