Bantam Egg Humidity

[JustAFarmer00]

Hello, this is my first time hatching bantams and was looking for advice on humidity. It is now day 8 of incubation and here is how they look. I have marked the air sacks with a pencil and did the best I could to capture the candling on camera. Any help is appreciated !

half of my birds are on the smaller side and lay smallish eggs .. my opinion is a smaller egg cant afford to lose alot of moisture or the chick may have problems at hatch time .. id keep humidity over 60 for sure .. 70, 80 wouldnt hurt anything ...

If you think the air cells are looking a bit too big I would up your humidity and re-check them in a few days.

Will that not inhibit the growth of the air cell??
