    Eggs are pipping and trying to zip! Humidity advice needed

    The membranes look beige I would say. How do you moisten the membrane and unstick? And you keep the paper towel around it in the bator? I've read that guide, it's great! I just love advice related to my specific situation (though it may not be that different :) ) I also currently have a wet...

    Incubator unplugged over night--temperature down to 70 and humidity to 75%

    Yes we got the humidity back to between 40%-50%, but that's what it had gotten to when my coteacher arrived this morning before she adjusted it back. Is a high humidity for a few hours bad?

    Incubator unplugged over night--temperature down to 70 and humidity to 75%

    I am incubating chicken eggs in my preschool classroom, so each night I leave and don't have access to them. We have cleaners who come in and they ended up unplugging the incubator around 8pm. When my coteacher came in at 7:20am the incubator was down to 70 degrees and humidity was at 75%. So...
