i keep my humidity at 25-30% days 1-18. Its a generic unbranded bator but it does pretty well and ive hatch from it before.

I think i have made a mistake. Its day 7 and i had ten eggs. When i candled them all of them were fertile however i noticed two of them were very poress and both of those two looked very different from the others. After looking at them more i noticed what looked like a blood ring around the...

Thanks guys! I really appreciate it. Everything is stable now and has been for about 12hrs. 99 degrees and 25-30% humidity. I did look earlier i have a pretty bright light and could see the yolks moving just no developement or air cell. But i have a better idea what to look for now. Thank you so...

even with the high levels of humidity? Thats what i was refferring too. I cant see an air sack?

my eggs do not have that im afraid. Should i toss them or give them a few days? When i use the light i dont see anything at all.

im on day 3. For the most part it stays right at 100. I cant get it to stay on 99 for some reason. When i set it to that temp it always falls real low. I dont know why. But its pretty easy to keep it at 100 for the most part. It only goes to 102 sometimes and i check on it often so it doesnt...

I hav i have one vent open and one closed. I did finally find a way to remove most of the water. It took awhile but it dried out for the most part and is now reading between 25%-30%. So im happy with that. I fear that the humidity was already too high for too long though. My shells are kind of...

you seriously alot! Hopefully one day i will be as knowledgable in the subject as you. I have a huge interest in learning about and raising my own chickens. So after i failed at incubation the first time about a year ago i decided to jusy start out with 10 or so birds. My hubby and i turned our...

this helped so much! Thank you! The books i rented for library to try to get a better understanding deff dont have any of this info! Plus i have a 3month old daughter so i have the things needed on hand! I never thought about it as an average temp so this reassured me some! Thank you again :)

Also, i mentioned i had some air circulation due to the fan. So i should be running a temp close to 99.5 right? Rather than the higher temp for most still airs? Because i have two thermometers on opposite sites and they both read the same temp. So the fan must be doing its job?

thanks so much! I deff need it. These little giant incubators are tough.

i dont mind staying up to get it right. I really want this to work. I already have glass rocks in the water wells. But i have not tried the heat sink idea. I kept seeing others mention it but didnt know what it was! I will try that thanks so much!

oops sorry! I was in a hurry trying to get some answers. Didnt take much time to try and figure things out. I apologize. Thanks for the good wishes!

Im only on day two of incubation. Technically theyve only been in for a little over 24hours. I put them in last night. I just went back to check on it and now it was 104. Couldnt have been that way for long... maybe 20mins. Ive got to get this temp thing under control. My babies are probably...

I have a Little Giant 9200. Its a still air incubator but i found a small battery operated fan at wal-mart for only 5 bucks and it fits perfectly in the incubator so it does have air circulation to an extent. Anyways I've read through a lot of these post and did a lot of modifications to the...
