    Humidity Issues in incubator

    I’m getting ready for lockdown tomorrow, but I have never been able to get my humidity past 50 degrees. Are there any tricks that anyone has used to raise it besides adding more water?

    Incubation Hatch Record Journals

    I decided to start an "Incubation Hatch Record" journal back in February 2017 for my first try at incubating. I also took many photos and videos. I made a separate "Brooder Journal" as well. Does anybody else keep records or journals? Should I add or change anything? Please share yours.
