I've never weighed either. I marked air cells, but never used them to gauge humidity. I always followed the formula: 30% for 18 days, then 65%. Barnyard chicks always popped, but the sussex were always malpo or DIS. wish I could hatch them again to see what the problem actually was. Probably low humidity, because the egg shells always seemed a bit porous/thin. I always had a few stinkers.

Anyway, with the honas I wanted to be a little more scientific. Not a big deal. I think the AC look pretty good despite weight loss.

They look great, Ms. Camping. Im still waiting for my incubator to regulate.... 102 right now.. way to high for little quail eggs.

Kathy there are a few terrible things in that post though. like humidity suggestions and so forth! NEVER RUN LOWER THAN 18% at minimum! It will affect the CAM! I wont read on, that was enough for me to stop.

If it's borderline small, I'd go, 10% less. 

I thought she meant 10% less than the current humidity for cells that were borderline too small.

Everyone got their taxes finished?
Finished mine today. Could've done them all in one day, like I did last year, but something called BYC kept calling me
