Hello folks!! :) I raised chickens and (LOTS of) ducks growing up, and totally fell in love with keeping ducks. I had my own mini flock of khaki campbells about 10 years ago, but have had to step away from it since. I finally live somewhere where I can have backyard poultry again, and I'm SO...
I’ve just gotten a little giant and have since put some chicken eggs in, I’m aware that the humidity and temp gauges are off. Though I have gotten my temp right, the humidity is still at 90%. How would I go about lowering it?

Setting up a new Little Giant and waiting to see how it compares with the Nuture 360. We got so many eggs and chicks not yet seating that we need more incubator room...
Lets see the hatch rate for these two.
Anyone has any recommendations?
If you have a Little Giant Incubator and you are as disappointed with your hatches as I was, I can lead you through some modifications to make it better.
I have other high end incubators but I wanted to incubate even more eggs, so I found some ways to make my Little Giant not only work but work...
