Humidity too low!!

[Christi2107]

4 of my chick eggs started pipping this morning at 2 am & since then that is as far as they have gotten. Shouldn't they being going faster? They're still chirping and rocking back and forth. At what point should I help them? My humidty stays & around 58% and that's with all my water rings full and 4 sponges soaked. Any ideas on increasing my humidity...think i've tried just bout everything!

Do you have any openings that you could close up. That will increase the humidity. Just don't close them all up so they can still get air.

58 works for me for the hatch. It should also start rising as they hatch.

Thank u!! 4 of the 6 hatched just fine without any help but 2 of them seemed to have gotten stuck to the membrane & i had to help them out but all 6 chick eggs survived. Started out with 6 eggs and hatched 6 healthy chicks and this includes a 12 hr power outage!
