I also have problems with my humidity, in Utah if you don't water your eggs, they die. It seems as your the water sensor (the two long round metal pieces) are not making a connection. When you add water in the reservoir, does it make it to the other side to wet the sponge?
Nikon D5100, this was with the 55-200mm lens.
It's not the tool that creates the best shot, it's the skill that creates phenomenal photos. I've taken literally over 20,000 photos since I was about 14 years old, i'm 19 now.

Here are my photos of my birds. Feel free to ask questions. These are two high resolution photos. No watermarks, I grant permission for BYC to use these photos of however, I would like some credit of course. Have fun!
I am going to show waterfowl at my local summit county fair. I'm going to enter one pair of sebastopol geese, and one pair of pekin ducks. If anyone could help me to improve my birds please let me know thanks
The key is darkness. I would strongly recommend doing this during the night, when peafowl have their largest weakness. I would also use a flash light and a large fishing net.
I released mine the first week (When I first had peafowl), and they ran away. I still do not let mine out, since the fear they will leave. I would strongly consider of not releasing them until 3 months to 6 months (Just to be safe). Remember, they can fly. If you do not have flight netting, clip...
55% is perfect! If your humidity is to low (Lower than 40) your eggs might dry up and crack. Your hatch ability will be lower. This happened to me before . I hope that helps.
Rareroo, thanks so much I will visit the forum in one sec! Do you know if the big hatcheries such as, Murray Mcmurray/Cackle/Ideal Poultry sell true phoenixes?
Okay, I have made this quail video a few months ago. I thought to bring it up for the people who have not seen it. This video basically talks about, hatching, brooding, and raising quail. If you have any questions please ask!!!
