Day 20 pip

[Angie McMahan]

Talk about an emotional rollercoaster! Woke this morning to seeing my humidity had dropped to 32%. I have it back up to 55% and I have one that has pipped, also have heard chirping. Is 55% high enough? I am sure I could bring it higher, but I'm afraid it will go too high like it did several days ago....

Try and get it up to about 70%. If you get excessive condensation, try moving the incubator to a warmer area as condensation is caused by the difference between the temp and humidity in the incy, compared to that on the outside.

At your current setting of 55%, I would fear the drying of the membranes as the chicks pip and begin to unzip.

How exciting though...I am SUPER jealous! I'm only on day 11!

Good luck xxx
