Don't fill the water too high or it will spill when you turn! Learned that after cleaning up 3 different puddles.

Ok thanks scflock

Ok thanks everybody. Humidity is at 60% now, temp about 99. Is there any problem with using dirt in the brooder or hay? Cause I have plenty of those but no shavings

I need help quickly and the hatch in thread j posted in is really quiet. My humidity went down to 40% last night and this morning I opened it to put more water in and take out the bars, and it appears at least 3 duck eggs have already made a little crack with their beak. Will they die? It's only...

Ok, thanks Annjee

I know this isn't a hatching thread, but I have a question. I posted it in another thread as well, but it seemed kind of quiet. Tomorrow is day 25. (I have duck eggs) That's lockdown, correct? If so, then I'll turn tonight, then tomorrow morning I'll turn so it's at the normal position. Then I...

Okay, thanks @dekel18042 and @Annjee. I have a peice of felt draped into both channels. I put the humidifier back in the room last night because it's really dry. Lockdown is Wednesday!! So eggcited!

I'm having trouble keeping the humidity stable. When I tilt it, depending on which way it's turned depends on the humidity. For example, turned backwards, the humidity rises up to 60%, not turned humidity stays about 50%(and it constantly changes) , and forward, well, I don't really know...

Candled all my eggs tonight! Day 19 for the duck eggs and day 12 fro the chicken! Everything looks alright! The air sac goes up, right? And the pointy side down. Right? *crossing fingers* Cause that's how I have it. I turned the entire incubator up to 7 times daily the first week, four the...

Am I the only person whose cord is hard to keep in? I have to position it just so, otherwise it comes out. Yesterday the incubator was off for 1/2 hour because it got wiggled.

Thanks!

Quote: I have my thermometer turned to the side if you're facing the vent. Is that okay?

Yes with Brinsea you need to have 40-50% humidity. This thread is for the Brinsea Octagon Eco. Is that what you have?

We are currently under tornado warning. If the power goes out for, say, and hour+, will they eggs be fine?

Ok. I'll post it in the silkie thread

I've read somewhere where someone said that because silkies are so tiny they can drown in the egg when hatching if the humidity is too high. Is that true?

Can someone answer this questions?

My humidity is at 50% ish. Is that ok because I have 12 duck eggs and 8 chicken eggs (including silkie)? Temp is at 100about. Hard to tell exactly

I noticed this little hole yesterday. Is that on all Octagons? Nothing to worry about when adjusting humidity?
