My eggs are due to hatch on Saturday, so would I lock down tonight or tomorrow night? Also, I had 2 bators, one just went bad, so had to add my eggs that were just set 3 days ago into the same bator that is due to hatch Saturday. Any helpful ideas on what to do? I have 6 due to hatch, and 6 just set. Thanks in advance.
 
I am on my first hatch, so I'm not much help. I do know lockdown is on day 18. Counting this way: If you set the eggs before noon, that's day one. After noon, that's day zero and the next day is day one.

Putting the eggs in at different times, I can't help with but there are plenty here who have done it who can.

Good luck with this hatch!
 
Thank you. Ok, so I had better take out the turner and prepare them. Thank you
