Please tell me if this info is correct:
Day 1-25 temp 99.5 humidity 55%
Does lockdown start on day 26?
What should the temp and humidity be?
Once the cicks have hatched what should the temp and humidity be?
Thanks
 
If you are incubating chicks

I dry incubate the first 17 days so my humidity is between 25-30% 55% seems high

on day 18 is lockdown and bump up humidity to around 50% I keep the temp the same throughout the process

just hatched out 14 of 14 Cream Legbars

Temp in the brooder is the same as you had in the incubator then go down a few degrees every week....I just put my heatlamp in one corner and if they need it they go to it

~~Day 1-25 temp 99.5 humidity 55% DEPENDS ARE YOU USING AND AIR INCUBATOR OR STILL??
Does lockdown start on day 26? LOCKDOWN IS THREE DAYS BEFORE THERE DUE DATE. ALSO HELPS IF YOU STOP TURNING THEM FOUR DAYS BEFORE DUE DATE BUT DON'T LOCK THEM DOWN ON THIS DAY.
What should the temp and humidity be? AGAIN DEPENDS ON WHAT TYPE OF BATOR YOUR USING.
Once the cicks have hatched what should the temp and humidity be? AFTER THEY HATCH KEEP THEM IN THE BATOR FOR 24 HOURS DOESN'T MATTER WHAT THE HUMIDITY IS..
