How to hach eggs with different dates

[Silkiehen]

I have eggs that I put in on 7/18, then I put new ones in almost every day. I use the same incubator. This is my first time, so I am not sure. I cant afford another incubator. Any suggestions? I have a still air Little Giant.

The problem lies in the issue of timing things like lock down and/or the removal of chicks that hatch once they have dried and stabilized w/out disrupting the key times of hatch for those about to hatch by causing detrimental fluctuations in temp and humidity.
Moving forward, the better approach is to gather one clutch, set and hatch and then gather another - so that all eggs are started and done at the same time.

Yes - each a day from the other - but over all how many days of a spread is it you are working with? If you started on the 18th you have four days including today, did you add eggs on each of those days?
