Hello all -- I am incubating my first batch of eggs (on day 2) & am curious what the best humidity level for the eggs is. I am using a Hova-Bator I borrowed from a friend, and the instructions included only a very generic discussion of humidity, with no actual setting or percentage recommended. The temperature in the incubator is right at 99 - 100 degrees F.
I live in far West TX, and it is super duper dry out here. I filled the tray in the incubator and the humidity level is hovering right at 60%, is this good? or too high?
I know that when lockdown occurs, the humidity needs to be raised, but by how much?
Any other incubator temp/humidity things I should be aware of?
Thank y'all in advance!
