are my eggs ok?

[donatkin]

I had some eggs in my incubator that were a few days from hatching so I raised my humidity to 70% for them to hatch. While they were hatching I recived some more eggs and put them in the incubator. So the new eggs sat in high humidity for three days. Today I lowered it to 45%. The air bubble is pretty small in the eggs. Did I kill them? Or are they going to be ok? Thanks!

I'm too new at incubating, so I can't help you much. I personally don't think it will hurt them. But someone on here with more experience may tell you different. Anyhow, this will give your a bump up!

As long as there are no pips in the hatching eggs, they most likely

are ok. But for next time, please NEVER put new eggs in the incubator

until all the others are hatched.

Your eggs will be OK.

My last goose egg was in hatching humidity for almost a week.
He just hatched yesterday healthy and happy!

"Pipping" is when the chick first breaks through the shell, creating a crack, dent, or small hole.
