I have a still air incubator. Chicks are alive and moving but my air cell is the size of day 7! My humidity has been running in the low to mid 30%'s. How can I increase it this close to hatching/?? HELP. Can they hatch with such a small air cell?

Just a question... does you incubator recommend humidity at that level?I have a still air incubator. Chicks are alive and moving but my air cell is the size of day 7!

Just a question... does you incubator recommend humidity at that level?
If you have been running humidity lower like that there shouldn't be a problem. Not sure, any chance you can get a picture?
Hmmm... it seems really low. I run mine at 57-60% up to day 20 and 65% for hatching day. I have heard people do it in mid high 40's but never lower than that... that;s a great question for your manufactirer.Incubator never gave a number level for humidity. It said fill one area for day 1-18, and fill other 2 areas for hatching.
I can get my humidity number up, my concern is the air cellHmmm... it seems really low. I run mine at 57-60% up to day 20 and 65% for hatching day. I have heard people do it in mid high 40's but never lower than that... that;s a great question for your manufactirer.
At this point I'd try in getting the humidity at the appropriate level for your particular incubator.
Understood, but I don't think there's much you can do about it at this point... Hope things end up allright... please keep us posted.I can get my humidity number up, my concern is the air cell
