I'm hatching turkey eggs. The humidity for 25 days was at 45% I turned it up to 65% for the last three days. Lots of rolling around but no pips yet. They are not due to hatch until tomorrow. I hope they can get out of there. What do you think? Have I got the humidity high enough, or should I raise it up a little?

You should go higher, especially when a pip starts. I've heard the turkeys can take longer to zip, which means they could shrink wrap more easily. I'm incubating for the first time, and another person suggested kevin porters web page:
