I'm hatching out my 1st set of eggs! They have been at 100 degrees. At first they were in a still air incubator @ about 30% humidity. Then on day 18 I moved them to a different incubator because I have 3 staggered hatches so the rest still need the turner. The second incubator is a forced air incubator with humidity at 68%.
4 of my 5 eggs hatched overnight. 5th egg has not piped and I'm not hearing any peeping from it. The other 4 babies are still drying off but they are rolling egg # 5 all over the place! Should I leave the chicks in the incubator to dry or move them? Eggs are actually not at day 21 until this evening so I'm not too worried about the one that didn't hatch. I just don't want the other babies to hurt it.
