does the incubator have a fan in it or is it still air?

good instructions here. generally it is 99.5 for incubation with a fan in the bator.
for still air about 101.0 but if you go up above chat into the search bar for BYC you can find everything you need for info on just about it all!

Thank you!!!
Is it better to incubate shipped eggs or place them under a broody hen??
If you used the dry hatch method (no water up until now) 69% is a little high. If you didn't use the dry hatch method, 69% is way too high.........open some vents....
Just my 2 cents though. I am in lockdown today too. Good luck!
You should join the "La-yers" thread if you havent already!!
That’s a beautiful birdMalpositioned chick is still wiggling around, I can see him wiggling through the bator window. Every so often I hear a cheep. Humidity at about 65%. I rigged up a system with some tubing and sponges so I can adjust it properly without opening the bator.
It's nice to have people to share in the waiting with. I'm so impatient for these eggs to hatch!
While we're waiting, here's a picture of one of my Christmas Day hatch quail, Blitzen. I am pretty sure she's a she now. She's my favourite because she just lays in my hand, as pictured.
