Day 12 air sac size - too small?

[PhoenixManz]

Hi all! I'm wondering if the air sacs for some of these are too small for day 12? Humidity has been between 30% and 55% (I let it fall down to 30% before bringing it up to 55% again, usually twice a day).

Just wondering if I should decrease the humidity for the coming days. Looking forward to your input. Thanks in advance!

I usually don't pay too much attention to the air sacks. Some do though. Humidity, unlike temperature, goes on an average. You're keeping it mostly to 55% then it's dropping down twice a day isn't hurting anything. I think your eggs are going to be fine. Are you seeing movement? It's so exciting!

I do lockdown Day 17/18, then up the humidity to 70%. It is more crucial at this time to keep it up there while they are hatching.

Best wishes for a successful hatch!

Thanks for sharing your experience!
Yes, there's been lots of movement ever since day 6 it's going to be a feisty batch I suppose
Here's a VIDEO from day 12 of candling

cool! Iv'e got some in the incubator too! two have hatched and one more is pipped, only day twenty. the incubator ran a bit warm, to make sure the eggs in the corner got enough heat, and I guess bro just said howdy.

Beautiful! It's so exciting isn't it? I can definitely recommend a forced air incubator for even warmth and consistent hatching
