Just wondered what humidity works for you guys when your incubating duck eggs? for the first few weeks and then when pipping?
Hatching duck eggs-humidity

Mine is around 55% for the first 25 days then up to 80% for hatching. It really can depend alot on the climate and current season where you live as well as what kind of machine you are using.

Ok, well ive started mine off at 55%. The temperature here is alright right now, around 10C but its forecasting snow for the next few days so temp is likely to drop quite a lot.

Hi Fraoch, I incubate my duck eggs between 50-55%. I raise my humidity to 70-75% after they internally pip.

Thank you, I'll try about 75% once they pip then
