I know this is a dumb question but can someone show me a pea comb. Is it the one that looks like a piece of chewed bubblegum? I don't see the three rows that people talk about.
 
X3 on the humidity Red, my broody eggs usually pip day 19 & hatched day 20. And the most important thing you need to do is make sure before day 18 that there isn't any gaps a chick can fall in & be seperated from momma. They will get to cold & die. That happened with my first broody hatch. Lost 2 chicks from that. Make sure you have marbles in you water dish so no chicks fall in & drown. Unfortunately the first couple days you shouldn't mess with mamma & babies. I know, not something you want to hear.
 
thanks red.
