Change of plans

Thank you! No the one in the other incubator that is due Thursday is the dry hatch, but humidity has been between 39-52%. The lowest it has dropped is 32%.

Ok..I've got the 56 running dry also, and 2 broodys due that day....

A very strange turn in events yesterday. I went to collect eggs and there were 3 marans eggs, went out in the run and Cersei's littles were hanging out with the 6 week old grow outs and Cersei was going about her business. I watched the camera last night and she left her littles and went to roost, they slept on the coop floor. I have probably had 12-15 broodies raise chicks the last few years, none have ever weaned their chicks and immediately started laying again, they always go through a light molt and resume laying after a few weeks. I guess it just caught me off guard.

The dry hatch incubator is in lockdown

Officially 2 days from hatch day, I did add some water today, we are having a "cold front" and the air is much drier. I'd expect to start seeing pips tomorrow with how the rest of my hatches have gone so far this year.

Best of luck with your hatch !!
