   I am placing some eggs in the incubator today! I am very excited but have heard many different stories. I am trying to hatch Easter eggers and Black Copper Marans. What setting work best for everyone? 97-101 degrees? Humidity 50%?

   What kind of incubator are you using? Type can impact temperature. For a forced air, you'd want a temp of 99.5. Still air should be around 101.
   
   I prefer to use dry incubation, and keep the humidity around 35-40% under lockdown, then bump it up to 80%.
