I have a Genesis 1588 'bator (actually 2 of them) and my last 2 hatches were less than respectable. I maintained the humidity at between 35-50%, not adding water until the humidity dipped below 30% (this is for days 1-18). Then filled both troughs on "lockdown day" at which time the humidity increased to about 70%.
I have a batch in the 'bator now and I have been maintaining the humidity a bit higher this time on days 1-18....around 45-55%. Just testing to see if there is any impact.
In your experience, whats the best humidity range from Days 1-18? At what point do you add water?
Where do you keep your humidity during the last 3 days?
Thanks much for any advise....hoping for better hatches to come.
