Ok, What the heck? I've got some chicks hatching out now, as we speak, ~ 19/20 days in, temp has been steady at 99-100, dry hatch w/ humidity at maybe 30%. started lockdown 36 hours ago, increased humidity to ~ 70%, temps still steady ~ 100. Two chick hatch, both have the yolk sac not absorbed, one worse than the other. Ideas? Comments, Future fixes?

The chick didn't make it, the second chick seems to be absorbing it's sac. Another chick pipped halfway around and died.... I have never had this much trouble!!! Temps seemed stable, I dont know. I'll be patient and see how the rest do. No more pipping at this time.
