EDUCATIONAL INCUBATION & HATCHING CHAT THREAD, w/ Sally Sunshine Shipped Eggs

I can't even remember what this is now.

Do you have any water in the incubator resevoirs right now?

I'm not exactly sure to tell you how to bring the humidity down as I've never had to that. Someone here must know.

What's the best way to bring down humidity people on here?

I remove H2O w/turkey baster & add as needed.
We have so much humidity in Fl., I don't add much water untill day 18 anyway.

Ok...it wasn't a real chicken person who made that gif.
The vent goes inward instead of outward when laying the egg???
What the hay...I say what the hay??

I'm afraid of cows.

I must have more eggs. I'm due to have another hatch this Friday (bearded d'uccle) and seramas the week after. And no more... that just won't do. I really enjoyed doing bantam polish and Cochin.
Well if anyone knows of a good breeder lemme know! Cause you just can't have enough

So last week, just before I went vertigo, My #2 incubator died and I scrambled forty something cold eggs.
I cleaned it up and got it ready for the box to save it for parts. FIRST, last night I plugged it in for the heck of it.
I just went in to turn the eggs in bator#1 and Lord & behold! That rascal is working! The factory temp even matches my aux meter. I GIVE UP.
Not sure if it is trustworthy yet. Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.
I'll give it a couple days and check out the situation.
I aints gunna set noes foe too eggs in dare noe mo..
