Hey everyone! I was just wondering if this is normal for day 18. I am hatching silkie eggs and just want some conformation. I just put them under lockdown.

Looks go to me! I can see veins I think, and a very large air cell! It still has a reddish color to it so that is good! Just to be sure, what is your humidity/temp at?

65-70%. I just put it under lockdown I’m im having a little trouble getting the humidity up in my incubator. Any tips for that?
thanks so much!

Assuming this is celsius? Yep that all sound good! Are you checking it with a calibrated thermometer to make sure its accurate?

No I haven’t. Although before I began incubating I checked it with a thermometer to make sure it was accurate and it was. But I’ll check it again just to be safe. Thanks for the suggestion!
