Well I am new to hatching so I will try any suggestions

I couldn't afford the forced air incubator so I got the still air and the fan from walmart for 10. Saved myself 50 dollars

It is near Charleston sc. It is humid outside but somehow my house is dry. Should I take out the vent plugs

I tried no water humidity dropped to 9%. My house is pretty dry. I tried the wells it dries too fast I just put the bowl in right before the pic to try that gonna hookup a tube with syringe to add water to keep me out of it

That makes sense. My ocd gets the best of me. The eggs have to be lined up or it drives me nuts. I may turn that part over to my hubby. Thank you

If you are getting 80% hatch on shipped eggs you are doing something right

I was doing 99 but upped it to 100 thinking that was my mistake.

I have tried 3 batches of eggs and have had no luck. I have little giant still air with a fan installed to move the air. Hydrometer it at 100 with humidity at 35%. I see air cell develope but nothing else. What am I doing wrong I need more fuzzy butts my brooder is empty and it is heart breaking

I told my husband today he needs to build me a shed he asked why. I said so I can have an outside brooder he shakes his head.

Ohhhh I want some. Lol
