Is anyone hatching on the 15th?

What will be your target humidity for the eggs during those last three days? How early could I possibly hear peeping? I haven't listened yet and I'm afraid my husband would think I was completely insane. When I put the eggs in the incubator I thought that three weeks was so long and that this Friday would never get here. I can't believe it is almost time!

well--so now its up to 56% When the turner comes out tomorrow-when I get home 5pm-ish?? I will jack it up to 65% and that's it-Then they are on their own :-( I hope it works...I do hear peeping through the shell though...clear as a bell! It's awesome...

Ok-so now Im freaking out-I could here the peepers for a day now with no sign of eggs pipping---its right next to me right now and I keep staring at the bator to figure out which on is making the noise-killing me!!! Im hoping the eggs is not to hard my shells have been really thick and hard from my birds!!

I have 32 eggs that are suppose to hatch on the 16th. This is my first try at incubating eggs, I hope all goes well

I didn't even have time to get the turner out yet!!! I pulled the plug on it though so the new one doesn't get hurt and rushing to get the brooder completly ready---the rest of the eggs are not due for a few more days! Thursday/Friday-ish bad news though-no camera till the huby gets home tonight-he's a real estate agent and took the camera!!! Maybe by then there will be more to show you!!!!
