Should I wait to incubate

[ellenaspen]

I received a shipment yesterday. I am supposed to receive another shipment tomorrow. Can I wait to set put both shipments in at the same time or should I go on and start the first batch today and have a staggered hatch?

TIA, Ellen

Personally I would wait. The uncertainties of how to handle a staggered hatch and having to favor one set of eggs over the other with turning and humidity would bother me. Just take out the turner if you have one, set that up and put the eggs in it, and let them settle. The second set will need to settle anyway.
