Humidity question

[g&h farm]

Im just curious, Im incubating my first eggs and am soo worried about the humidity. What if I dont keep enough water in there? What if I put too much? Are they that sensitive? Stressful

What incubator are you using? I see you are in Florida with high humidity like we have in Louisiana. When I was using a small bator, I kept my humidity around 35% the first 18 days, then bumped up to around 65% the last 3 days. Now I have a Dickey, I go 50% the entire time.

Remember, it's not how much water you have in there...it's surface area that counts!

Alot depends on your incubator & ambient humidity.....AND you have to get familiar with the incubator you're using. After a few hatches, you'll work out what works best for YOU.

Good luck!
