first incubation...need any and all advice!!!

[bkterry]

i just got the lg still air. this will be my first incubation with it. i did buy a digital thermometer that shows humidity and know about turning the eggs. the manual that came with it said 99.5 degrees for chicken eggs. Is that the best temp to use? Also what about humidity level? What does it need to stay at?? thanks for the help everyone

temp in a still air should be 101-102

Here is some info on hum..... https://www.backyardchickens.com/LC-DryIncubation.html

I keep mine 30-40 day 1-18 and then up it to 60-65 day 18, this has always worked good for me !!

Good luck !!
