    I will be hatching right with you! I just set 5 Annaconna's and 6 RIR/Australorp Crossbred and pure. For the humidity question you do not want to run your humidity that high. 35-40% day 1-18 and 60-70% during lockdown because the humidity keeps the egg from drying out like it needs to for the...
