JANOEL 24 INCUBATOR HUMIDITY!!! HELP!!!

[Majak5]

It’s lockdown day and I’ve closed the air vent and am filling both water holes but my hydrometer says that the humidity is still at 55%, I’m not sure what to do, how do I adjust the humidity settings. Please help, it’s lockdown, I need help now!!!

Can you get a sponge and wet it and stick it in the bator?

 

[ChickNanny13]

Did you calibrate prior to check the readings?

I’m worried that when the chicks hatch they will get wet from the sponge

 

[Majak5]

Did you calibrate prior to check the readings?

Yes, but just in case it isn’t calibrate probably how would you recommend I calibrate it

 

[ChickNanny13]

Calibrate a thermometer & hygrometer, then stick it in the incubator that has been on for couple of hours. Let it run & check compare the readings.

Better to have a wet sponge your in lock down you said you will need to calibrate before you do any more alright right now put the sponge in please

KikisGirls and penny1960 are correct, ADD that wet sponge. You can mess with the calibration AFTER these eggs hatch.
