Hey! So I started some chickens and ducks in my 'bator at the same time, and then realized that that might have been a problem because of different humidity needs.

Right now I've been holding the humidity at 30-35%, but I am wondering what to do when the chickies lock down period starts. Should I just raise it up to 60-65%, and call it good?

They are on day 12 right now.
Thanks for your replies!!!
 
The ducks are more tolerant of humidity issues so I wouldn't worry. Just spritz the duck eggs when you add water to the incubator. I don't even have trouble with dry hatching most duck eggs. Your plan should work fine.
