Day 22- No pips, movement, or peeps

Small air cells and failure to hatch does sound like too high humidity. I prefer to dry incubate and only add water during lockdown.

What was the humidity % during incubation and lockdown?

I dry hatch also, but I don’t add any water at lockdown, my hatches have been in the 90’s%.
I don’t open the incubator until lockdown and that’s when I candle.
I live in a high humidity area and that makes a difference.

I live in Nevada so it's pretty dry here. I think adding water towards the end would definitely be necessary. Some days of the year the moisture just gets sucked out of me, can't imagine it would be much different for the eggs. But definitely going to try dry hatching in the beginning stages next time!
