Do you lower temp during Hatch?

[Strader]

Do I need to lower my temp to 98 degrees during hatch time? (last 3 days). I have a cabinet incubator with 4 fans. will It Hurt to keep it at 99.5 ? got my thermostat dialed in perfectly and really hate to mess with it.

If you don't lower temperature, don't raise humidity too high or you can lose them during hatch. If you do lower temperature, watch that it doesn't go too low or humidity too high or you will end up with soggy chicks.

So if your temp is perfect, don't raise humidity past 70% tops...
