Humidity in a Hova ( Urgent)

[JKeiser]

Hello,


I have 4 Bantam BR's due to start pipping tomorrow. I have the main section of the water tray filled, but not the others. How, when or where should the extra water go for humidity???

I have a hova bator that I use for hatching. For lockdown you are supposed to fill the 2 reservoirs in the center. This should put your humidity in the correct range. In winter there is less humidity in the air and you will sometimes need to put water in the two smaller angled channels as well.. If you fill them all it should carry you through the 3 days of lockdown.

I have never needed any sponges with this brand of bator.
