This.
Patience is a good tool when incubating.

I didn't get to candle any but is is soo quiet!! - maybe it is taking a nap. Hehe.

They do go super quiet for long stretches around hatch time.

66% is good. The lowest I let mine go for hatch is 55%

Looks good. But, next time you need to get a really good thermometer and hygrometer.

They sleep lots during hatching and are still absorbing the yolk. Once an external pip is visible it can take 24 hours before they zip out. Generally sooner but don't panic now! Hands off the incubator.

Still air temp should be 102 at the top of the eggs.

I have not used a still air incubator, so I think it would be best if someone that uses them would comment.

@Pyxis, @WVduckchick , @Texas Kiki , do you guys know anyone that uses a still air?
