Hi all
Can anyone please confirm what my settings should be for the incubation and hopeful hatching of Pekin Chicken eggs.....
I have been told and read on lots of site to achieve and maintain:
First 18 Days - 100F & 60 to 65% Humidity. Turn at least 3 times a day.
Last 3 Days - 100F & 80 to 85% Humidity, DO NOT TURN EGGS.
I have just spoken to my eggs supplier here in the UK and he says thats wrong, its should be:
First 18 Days - 100F & 50 to 55% Humidity. Turn at least 4 times a day.
Last 3 Days - 100F & 60 to 65% Humidity. Stop turning.
Now another friend who has been through this agree's with the top figures, yet another says its way to high. So what would most recommend, I have no idea....
Is there anyone out there in Cyber land that could advise me what they to believe to be the correct settings....
Thanks
