From your last pic your jars don't look over filled if they are all like that.
I am claiming false. The last jar looks perfect. It's on the full side but definitely not over filled

You only want to shake once during the colonization process, and if you shake now it won't be as fast as if you wait a few days. There isn't even any rhizomorphic mycelium yet.. its still just taking hold and will take longer to recover versus if you wait to see rhizos.
False. Those jars In your pic are way past due for a first shaking. You can shake more than once. Depending on the amount of inoculate. But she cab do a test and see. Shake all but two of your jars now. Shake those two next week along with giving the other jars a second shaking. See which way works better.

They are past the 1st shale point. And yes, you can certainty shake more than once.
Actually some people even choose to give a final shake after or close to full colonization to see how the grains recover.
While it is not foolproof, it can give an idea if contaminates are present. Especially bacteria.
Say one gives their jars a final shake at full colonization and 8/10 recover quickly but the other 2 don't seem to be doing much, then I would leave the 2 slow ones separate from the rest of a bulk grow and add to their own smaller tub... as not to risk contaminating your grow with one or two suspect jars of spawn...

excellent info! I've always given my spawn the final shake test it seens to show hidden contams more often than not.. on the notion that the jars are too full, personally I fill my jars to the bottom of the taper TO ME it just seems more efficient to maximize each PC cycle and with the fuller jars gives me very good results using 4 qts of spawn per tub the only downside I've ran into is that they can be a real pain to shake thoroughly
