Cant Get My Humidity Right... UpDate on Hatch

[NancyP]

Brandi, I would leave your temp the way you have it and wait and see when the chicks hatch. If they are late then you know your temp was low if they are early then your temp was high. On time means you got it set good.

my humidity has been at steadly 57-59%.

and my temp has been 100 steadly.

is this ok?

 

[sangel4you]

is that 100 with your stick or electric or both? I'm asking because I just set mine last night and I have the same set up and thermometers as you...

well my stick broke.. so its my electric

Well mine was running between 100 and 103 last night (first night with fireplace on -needed some adjusting, got them down to 100 today (except for one of THREE sticks I have in there but I think that ones wrong) and now they're down to 99. I think I'm just going to let them run low and wait longer...lol it's better than scorching them in my book! My problem is my humidity is running about 55% now. I think thats too high. and I don't know how to get it low without making it too low.
