I Have a Question about incubation...

[Shamo Hybrid]

She's my aunt

My hen is currently laying eggs in the nest box, and I think I might need to get an incubator in case she doesn't go broody and set on her eggs..... this is my first time too. BTW, what kind of incubator do you have?

Like was posted, it does not really matter that much. You could stop turning the eggs on day 14 and it would be fine. The humidity is more of an issue. You want to have 65 to 70% humidity when the eggs externally pip.
I have gone to day 19 before changing over for lockdown.
