Duck eggs and humidity levels.

[Kellypete9]

I am new to trying to hatch pekin duck eggs. They are on day 27 and just starting to try and pip. The humidity readout say 72% is that good. I have seen so many posts about killing them as they try to hatch because of wrong levels. Temp is set at 100°

Seems a touch high. It depends on several factors though. How is the hatch progressing??

One has broken through. As of this morning they other two have cracks but have not broken through. That was at 630am. I am at work till 3pm. When I left humidity was down to 68%. The other 2 eggs were still moving this am.

68 seems better. Glad they are starting to hatch!! You'll know if the humidity's off if there are issues with hatching. Good luck!
