I bought a new incubator. A Genesis.
first hatch was pretty successful.
My humidity was 21% for most of the hatch.
I moved the eggs to a 'hatching" incubabor on the 18th day.
After the 1st hatch someone told me the humidity should always be close to 50%
I raised the humidity close to that in the hatching incubator and only had
1/2 the eggs hatch. The remaining eggs had full sized chicks in them.
In the genesis I have made sure the humidity is close to 50.
Is that wrong? Have I killed all the chicks?
