Hey everyone! It's my second time incubating. My first time didn't go so well but this time we have one egg moving. For some reason the humdity bumped up to 79. The egg is still moving a lot and seems fine but I didn't know if I needed to do anything other then watch and wait.
 
New born chicks will cause too much humidity, you should intervene and drop it to where it needs to be at for rest of the eggs.
 
What day of the hatch are you on? Perhaps a chick has pipped and drove the humidity up
We are not positive,but if we found her at the right time it's more then likely day 21. It was under our brooding hen and I brought them in to my incubator earlier in the day.She was doing well with the eggs but this morning I guess she thought she didn't need to take care of them any more and pushed some out of the nest. I grabbed the eggs that were still really warm and put them in my incubator. After about 2 hours one began to move and over the past hour it's moved more and more.
