lockdown time question?

[77bronco]

This is my first time hatching and I have a question about lock down. My date is June 1st but my question is do I lockdown that morning or the same time I actually set my eggs? Thanks in advance.

Lockdown would be today for you. You always lock them down three days before hatch time. I assume you know to up the humidity for lockdown, right?

Please look at my post in this thread to see how to calculate it.

Same time you set the eggs. I dont think it has to be exact.
