Attempt #2 at hatching

[Gibson786]

This is our second attempt at hatching. First attempt we hatched 2 out of 6 so this time we are hoping for all of them. Any tips on making this a more successful hatch?

Temp is at 99.5
Auto egg Turner
Humidity is at 50 to 55%

What are you hatching? Also, what day of incubation are you on?

Hopefully you are not in the early stages of incubation because that would be way too high of humidity.

Do you have at least one calibrated thermometer in your bator?

If not get one ASAP.

Lower your humidity down to 30% and I bet you have better luck this time.
