My incubater has 4 days left
We have done a dry hatch the entire process
But...
My hubby decided to help me in the process while I was at work last night....he started lock down a day early..and added water and has steadily kept humidity at 75% to 79%...is this humidity too high or bc we did a dry hatch is it ok...and also will the 4 day lock down effect my hatchings..and if humidity is too high how doi lower it

I love my hubster but he got a little ahead of himself and didn't really know wat he needed to know to do so...

Did he ruin all me and t he kids hardwork or r they ok.....help please give me some pointers and advice

hopefully others with more experience with a dry incubation come on to help.

I keep my humidity around 65% for lockdown but I don't do dry before. I believe some have done it a day early so that should be ok. I have put mine in lockdown a day early but don't up humidity till day 18/19 depending on how they look. What type of incubator is it?
 
i locked down one of my standard sized eggs on day 16 before. she was shrink wrapped wich is not her fault i saved her but she pipped healthy
