If I were you, I would try to get it up to at least 65. 65-70 is optimin. I don't know what kind of bator you have. I have an lg and I added water thru the vent hole with a plastic tube. You can use a straw or anything that reaches into your channels. You don't want shrink wrapped babies. I think if it were me, and mind you I am not in the least an expert, going thru my first hatch ever, but I probably would open it up and dump some water in if you can't do it thru a vent. Some put a sponge in and keep the water in it. Hopefully someone else will have a different opinion. I just know in my little giant, I kept the humidity at 65-70 untill they started hatching, then it went up to 80-82. I just opened one of the vents for a little while and it went down to about 78. do you have all your vents closed and lid on tight? I would check the manual to see what it said. Sorry I couldn't be of great help, but I really believe you need to get it up and quick. If you can hear peeps, it won't be long!!

Here's to a great hatch!!

And

the greatest site and nicest people!!

When chicks start peeping and chirping, it'll usually be another 24 hours or so before you see pips
