This is a very old thread but if you're in lockdown your humidity is low. I would bring up humidity what temp are you running? Do you have separate thermometer/hygrometer to monitor.

Incubators are notoriously wrong and is always best to have separate calibrated thermometer/hygrometer to know where your actually at.

At lockdown you want a humidity around 65%. Have you candled eggs to see if they are still alive?
