OFFICALLY: On lock down...now what do i do?????

I believe the reason you raise humidity at the end is so that the chicks do not "stick" to the membrane.
But too high of humidity in the early days causes the chicks to drown when they pip because there is still too much fluid in the egg.
Please correct me if I have this wrong.

We're at day 18 tomorrow. I need to remove the egg turner, right? It's an LG bator.

The Favorelle eggs in the Brinsea ator will be at day 18 in a couple more dyas. Am I ok leaving them as they are or should I remove the spacers?
