I'm on my 3rd attempt at incubating. The first attempt was not planned I had a broody hen doing the work we were about 16 days in when a coyote got ahold of her. I brought the eggs inside but was not prepared or set up. long story short the eggs got to hot. second attempt was a homeade incubator that I couldnt get the humidity high enough at the end. So I bought a forced air incubator. this time I just went into lock down 12 eggs 7 of which I could definately see peeps moving the other five are very dark eggs so I cant tell if they are moving or not. my question is I have the humidity at 70 and the temperature is 99. is this alright or should I come down to 98 on temperature or do I go down a degree when they start pipping. this is where I'm confused.
