Great questions Steve, wondering about raising the Humidity for that last three days for the chicken eggs and the turkey eggs aren't due to hatch for another week? I know I should have put them in a week early, just didn't work out this time.

If you go to Porters Turkeys Kevin has a Turkey Egg hatching Tips page. This helped me quite a bit.
