you must have a very big incubator

I have a cabinet incubator. My racks will hold 324 eggs. I have 6 racks that hold 54 eggs each and 3 trays, 2 racks for each tray. But I try to put around 30 to 40 eggs in a rack so when I transfer them to my styrofoam incubators that I use as hatchers the eggs have some space and are not real crowded. I had 29 eggs in this hatch and now 25 have hatched and 4 to go and tomorrow is day 21.
