I am in a situation that usually doesn't come up for me. I had someone ask me to hatch some silkie eggs for them. I told them when to start collecting their eggs and when to bring them to me.
At the same time I was planning to set some of my own for a poultry auction coming up in my area about a week after the hatch would be.
So in the meantime I won some free hatching eggs and so I coordinated them with these eggs. Well you can by now figure out what has happened. The hatching eggs didn't get to me until about 4 days after I had to set the other eggs. I just have one incubator and can't afford to go get a new one now.
These hatching eggs I just got yesterday, set them late last night after they settled all day, are Blue Breeds, Blue Andalusian, Blue Hamburg, Blue Copper Marans, Blue Birchen Marans.
I set the first eggs last Thur. night and the good blue breeds last night. I am really concerned about the effect of lockdown and higher humidity during hatch on these late eggs and am trying to figure out what to do for the best possilbe hatch.
I would really appreciate some help here.
