humidity question! In lockdown

[RedfogsFlock]

We're hatching runners....

Our humidity fell on day one of lockdown to 75%!

Now we're on the final day and my eggs have stopped moving!

We were at the store when it fell so it was low for at the most 2 hours, did they get entombed???

It's hatch day and nothing is happening!!!

try tapping the top of the bator... see if any move. Keep up the hope and don't open the bator I say.

People have hatched when the electricity went out during incubation... sometimes they hatch late. It does worry me that they stopped moving though.

Bump... hope someone has some better answers as I am NOT THE EXPERT!! BY ANY MEANS

It fell to 75% ? What was it at ?

Ok I tried tapping on the top, nothing nata

My humidity was at 80% and has steadily been right there since.

I haven't hatched duck eggs, but with hatching chicken eggs, mine stopped moving right before they hatched.

A 5% drop is nothing to worry about! If anything, I think the RH is a bit high.

THANK YOU EVERYONE!

We haven't opened the bator, and we're just going to keep our fingers crossed and hope for the best!

We figured we'd give them till Sunday.

trying to keep the hatching ju ju!
