Hatching Bantams; Increase Humidity Sooner?

Hello, I am hatching my first pure breed silkies. I’ve hatched standard crossed with silkies in the past, but never purebred. In the past, my chicks have hatched on day 18 or 19 and I’ve heard since the eggs are smaller. It takes even less time for them to fully develop and hatch. I am wondering if anyone with experience would recommend increasing the humidity on day 16 instead of 18 since I am guessing they may start to pip even earlier then the mix breeds I’ve done before. The eggs are smaller… Thanks! 😊
