    I have a humidity gage and it says 40% and we are on day 17. If I add a wet sponge, could the chicks drown from the water? Can the eggs touch the wet sponge???

    If you have an automatic turner, should it be turned on right away when you set the eggs in the incubator??

    I have had my eggs in their incubator for 22 days now... followed all the rules..... turned them 3x per day ...... left them alone on day 18 .... and now no hatching or even pipping. The teacher next door to me had the same eggs from the same farm and has 10 chicks. Where are mine...
