My new incubator(they're hatching)pics, final numbers

Its day 18, I stopped turning today and took all the eggs out of the cartons. Here are the stats so far: The first 3 days I kept the humidity at or near 40%. Then I would let the bator dry down to 25%. Thats what it would stay at without adding any water at all. I would keep the humidity at 25% for a 1 to 2 days and then raise it back up to 40-50% and hold that for 2-3 days. I would keep this cycle up until day 18. Then I raise the humidity to 60-70%. My temps have been holding steady at 99.3-99.7 degrees. This is the same procedures I used on my first hatch. I hope I have the same results this time as I did the first time. 1st set of 12 Black Stars 100% hatch 2nd set of 12 RIR's 80% hatch. I have 13 Black Stars and 11 RIR's this time. I will keep posting until all hatch.
 
I just got in this morning and I have 10 RIR's that have hatched. Most of the Black Stars have pipped. Will post some pics as soon as I find the camera.
 
congrats on the great hatch! the only thing though - i see 2 black stars and 4 EE... nevermind, if they were EE they would hatch from blue/green eggs. i wonder what those four are...
