Not enough room to lay eggs out for hatching

[StuckInARut]

Hi all. This is my first post. I recently bought a Rcom King Suro Max-20 incubator and put 24 eggs in it. We candled them the other day and 23 are fertile, which is great news.
However, they are currently pointy end down, wedged between plastic dividers, and there isn’t enough room to lay them horizontal for hatching. They are wedged in like sardines!
They are currently on day 14, so I’ve got 4 days to figure out what to do!
Can I just leave them as they are, and hatch them vertically?
Thanks in advance.

sounds like you will have to. They can hatch vertically just fine, some people actually prefer it. If eggs do roll over once the incubator becomes less cowded just watch out that no egg pips with the pip facing down, turn the egg around in such a case so the pip is facing up otherwise it should be fine. Chicks knock eggs about during hatching, should be fine,

Take all of the dividers out when you lay them on their sides to hatch, or you can hatch them upright like Mellowmalt said.
