EDUCATIONAL INCUBATION & HATCHING CHAT THREAD, w/ Sally Sunshine Shipped Eggs

​Yes it does. Ive been fighting it the last 2 days to get the humidity down. Placed a sock with rice in it last night and a dry cloth in the bottom (After I wiped away all the obvious moisture), its still hanging out at 55-60%!

If it has an automatic humidifier can you turn that off. Or remove any water you have in it. Is the Moisture in the room that high?

Have you removed all water from the channels?


-Kathy

​yes I've wiped it all out as best and quickly as I could. I now have rice in the channels. Hope that will do the trick when it comes to drying them out a little. It is currently at 52%

Was there water in the channels yesterday?

If it's like my Janoel or my Janoel knockoff, it just has a humidity sensor.

Yes but not standing water. A few drops but mostly moisture on the walls.

Morning Dax
Starting to feel better about mine. The 5-28 & 6-2 have started this week only a couple but it's a start.

The ones that have not started are my Heritage RIR and my lone female Ameraucana. I am unfamiliar with when they start, but at thirty and thirty one plus weeks, it is getting ridiculous.

It's so warm outside! Duckling and I put away summer stuff outside. Well, I put it away while she pulled it out to play with it.
Now the summer clothes are away inside, the summer toys are away outside. Acorns are collected, mud tracked through the house. It's an awesome day with my adorable Duckling!

Awesome days are good. Much better than working sitting at a desk.

My Orpington's started at 11 months. I'm weeding them out. Crazy how late they were.

-Kathy

I have no idea honestly, but I bought a meter that someone here recommended that should arrive tomorrow. I will use it to test the room as well as the incubator I plan to hatch them in since there's no monitor for it in the smaller one. I've never thought it was too humid in that room, they are in our bedroom. I guess I will find out tomorrow!

-Kathy

Yes! Sorry I misread that. It is just a sensor to monitor the humidity
