I just tried to hatch a dozen BCM and only one hatched in my Brinsea20. I have a humidifier attached to it. I was instructed to run the incubator at 99.8 with a humidity of 35. I was to increase the humidity to 70 at lockdown. 3 chicks were fully developed and just couldn't pip. The airspace was large, but the membrane was intact and rubbery, I was told this time to lower the humidity to 60 during lockdown to avoid the rubbery texture of the membrane. I don't want sticky chicks, but I want a hatch. With the humidity at 80 does that soften up the membrane more? I just don't know what to do. Help!!!!
