INCUBATING w/FRIENDS! w/Sally Sunshine Shipped Eggs No problem!

[Eliza1313]

I believe removing one of the vent plugs would lower the humidity, but you'd best check with some of the others. Sounds to me like the ambient humidity(room humidity) may be a tad high. What's the % showing on the hygrometer?

Not currently incubating. Had issues with the last go at it, trying to get things worked out for the next go.

Ambient humidity was high, and still is. Have an LG 9300, plan is to build or buy another incubator and use it as a hatcher. Considering an ARKSEN from Amazon, know there are some issues with those, most of which can be solved with adding insulation though.

I only had one vent plug removed for most of the time. Tried opening the other one and it just made the humidity level go up. I did not do a calibration check on the built in hygrometer nor on the one I bought. The built in digital one never read below 41%. If I placed the dial gauge one near that sensor it read close to the same as the display. When I moved it closer to the open vent it was reading anywhere from 5-10 higher. Also the open vent was the one nearest the heating element.

Good luck! Lockdown is the most stressful part for me, but also the most exciting. I have a batch of swedish flower hens and salmon favorelles going into lockdown on Christmas. Hope you get a nice turn out!

CH, I looked at the bigger picture of the one you are now using as your avatar. The thermometer you have inside the incubator is the same kind as 3 of my thermometers. In the picture, it is reading 106F! The three that I have are very accurate, and I think the one you have should be very close, too. Does it still show the temp at 106???
