The only thing I can do is take chick out and drain the water which will eventually drop the humidity down to 40% and because of this epidemic we are all out of paper towel i just have dish towels and toilet paper. No it dropped on its own when I put water in to raise humidity 3 days ago I was...
Should I take the
Should I take the grate thing out? The humidity is still at 75% so will that have an affect on the little one? I have the hydro powder I am just worried about it being so wet and humid and my temp dropped to 96 so I'm hoping nothings wrong with the incubator I just bought i...
