I am incubating Copper Maran eggs for a science fair project, now on day 17. Early on I had read that you incubate chicken eggs at 60-65% humidity & this is what I did. Recently I have read about Copper Maran's possibly having issues w/ to much humidity during incubation causing sticky or drowned chicks because of too high humidity. My egg weights have not changed much. Now I am worried for my chicks.
What should I do? Bring the humidity down? for one day till I am supposed to go into lock-down, or should I maybe keep them at a lower humidity for an extra day...try to dry them out & get some weight loss before lock-down? Can I go into lock-down a day or two later?
Your thoughts and help would be greatly appreciated
