French frogs

I've got about 300 plants started.... Yes my garden is huge for just a simple home garden....I grow way more food than we ever eat..... Give a lot away..... My friends come pick it down
When I'm done...... So yeah..... Then there's all the container plants and the greenhouse....... And all the outer plots...... Hmmmmmm I might want to scale back. .....:lau
 
We'll ignore the humidity readings, if there is liquid in the shells at internal pip, then there was too much water the first 18 days or the temp was too low for the chick to absorb it, or both.

Did you happen to trace air cells on your eggs? I just put some in lockdown last night and will trace and post in a moment.
I have a zoo med hygromter I've used as well, and it reads like my humidity is higher than that. There hasn't been noticeable liquid in the shells.



I didn't trace air cells this time, but when compared to the pictures I've seen, they seemed decent.

What size is the greenhouse?

Normal sized egg, due to hatch 4/13




Jumbo + sized egg, due to hatch 4/13



This is where I like to see my air cells when I remove the eggs from the turner. They remain at incubation temp (99.5-100F) at the egg level, and no extra humidity is added until after I have some external pips. Then I don't have a hard and fast rule, but I have more trouble with chicks with swollen necks that can't hatch or that are gooey if I raise the humidity too much or too early. I'd love to not add any water and just keep the chicks that make it out on their own but I haven't succeeded at that level of blue yet.

Mine was close to that. Maybe a bit smaller.
