i'v been incubating my eggs fo a week now and i want to know if i need to have the humidity higher than 10% to hach them sucsesfully, or are they gone? PLEASE HELP FAST!!!
I am no expert, but I like to have my humidity about 50 percent.. and then increase it to 65 at lock down. I would just add a bowl of water and then candle them in a few days, don't give up yet! Good luck!
Oh, don't give up. No, they're not ALL gone, maybe some of them. Several people do dry hatches with great sucess.
It is great to research on this site to get great oppinions...after answering your humidity question I am starting to rethink my humidity and maybe go lower.....never is a perfect answer!!! lol
I think the "dry incubation" method is not a bad way to go. I've heard of people going as low as 5% humidity during incubation and having great success. For me, I try to keep it around 35% or so until day 18, and then I bump it up to 65 or 70%. I'm sure that your chicks are fine.
