Ok….I need you guys to help me out here. I just candled my eggs at day 12 and saw that they have lost too much moisture due to low humidity. I live in a very arid environment with humidity levels around 15%. After calibrating my hydrometer I found that it was reading 8% high. Now I have increased my humidity in the incubator to compensate for the 8% difference, but I fear that the eggs might have already lost too much moisture during the first half of incubation. Is there anything I can do to compensate for the initial loss of moisture? Should I elevate my humidity levels above the standard 50% to rehydrate the eggs for a couple of days? Any ideas?
