When are eggs safe to incubate/stops being a 'pullet/new' egg?

I don't think it was calibrated... She had kept it in storage for a long time and she was missing some parts for it and had to use a different cord which may or may not have affected hatch, but I am not ruling out that it could be the eggs! I also don't like how you have to open it up to refill the water reservoir and turn the eggs, disrupting humidity and heat... But then again hens get up sometimes so I am unclear how much it actually matters!

I would say the less disruptions to the hatch, the better. A broody dose get off the nest, but do so very sparingly.

Yes, that's what I thought too! However I am still pleased with the three I successfully hatched
