Humidity At Lockdown??? First Timer

[TarHeelBlue]

I have kept my turkey eggs at 55% humidity until now. It is time for lockdown tomorrow - Where should I boost the humidity to??

around 70% has always worked good for me. I also drop the temp to 98.5 at lockdown for hatch. If you have real high humidity and them temp spikes, it can kill them after they pip with that high of humidity. Resist and do not open the bator until the hatch is done even if it takes a few days!

Thanks, I'll do that. I have a Brinsea eco 20 advance, so my temps have been really stable, but I will drop it down a degree and pop the humidity to 70 That's the easy part with this, I don't have to fight the humidity like I do in my LG (I have been using the LG to hatch in with a staggered hatch time)
