Mornin'!
We are trying to hatch BCM using dry hatch method. Have used this method before. Today (in 3 hours specifically) they are due to hatch. 5 hours ago I woke up and checked them and the humidity was in the 50's!! I got it raised back up. Will having a dip in humidity that close to hatch time cause them to stick inside the egg and not hatch?
 
They'll be fine. Have they pipped yet?
Thanks. We've had 1 chick hatch in 1 incubator about 7 hours ago. Have seen a few pips. Heard some peeps a few hours ago. The humidity in the 1 chick's bator is 84%. The other bator is at 65% and nothing is happening. I have no pl
ns to move this 1 chick until at least tomorrow. Just wanting to know what y'all think about these others?
 
We used dry incubation method. Added water on 19th day to raise the humidity to 65%.
