Humidity Levels High

[classroomchickens2019]

Ok, so I took advice from other websites that have said to have humidity between 50-60%. I've read here not to have it go above 55% and now it's teetering at 60%ish. I've tried lowering the humidity (I think it got too high because I turned the heat on in the room) How affected are my chicks? Anything I can do to make sure they don't drown when they start to pip? I got the chicks last week, so were around day 6-7. I've also tried to get rid of the water, but I'm not able to do that without making the eggs move too much and I'm worried it'll affect them more.

If u candle one egg and see veins going through the egg that means the chicks are still alive. A solid chick inside a egg with no veins is dead, it means the membrane is no long supporting the chick. I wouldn’t be too concern. I know many people that have humidity at 60 and at lock down 70 to 80. Usually they are mostly affected when the temp is over 40.5c

This is a good guide to look back at if your concerned within the process!

I run humidity at 40 till lock down..Then 60% I have a fan in my incubator.
