Some people also just get in the groove of taking to people and it feels a bit odd when new people come in. But it's all good. Luckily, I kept trying to remember what I did to hatch my...

    Another Emergency Question on Humidity, help ASAP PLEASE

    I don't see any fog, or water droplets on the windows. I was wondering if that is a sign of the right humidity. I can always add sponges if I knew for sure. Thanks, I am going to be watching and trying to see if the peeps still sound good and strong. Jennifer
