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

    Setting eggs in my 4th grade class today! This is my 3rd year doing this project. I bought a new incubator this year, an IncuView all in one egg incubator. This is my first time using it. All eggs are from my own flock of Barred Rocks.

    High Humdity ?

    I do realize we put too much water. I am curious is there is anything I can do to remedy that? I don't see how I can easily remove the water without causing a disruption to the eggs. Any ideas?
