First time Hatching question

[Hereduckyducky]

Hi! I'm Jennifer and have been busy hatching ducklings today. It's our first time hatching ever and first time using an incubator. We have 2 so far and more on the way.
So my question is this...with more hatching, my humidity is going up. It's up to 78% right now with the temp at 98.5°. All plugs are out so air can flow. Should I be concerned, and if so, how do I get the humidity to go down since I can't open the incubator? Thanks for your help!

Hello, Jennifer, and welcome to BYC! Glad you joined.
I can't help with incubator questions. I only use broodies.

We are still hoping our girls get broody, but for now, they are laying and not sitting. They are young though, so maybe in the spring, things will change. I can be hopeful anyway!
