Is it just me or does the membrane look super thick? Or maybe too dry?

It dried out pretty quick but I think these pics were taking over a long period of time.

Backwards (sideways backwards, not wrong end backwards) and head between legs. Still alive.

25 percent.

We usually have our humidity 45-55% for first 1-18 days and then 60% in lock down

Remind me what "area" you are in?

 

[RUNuts]

High---for outside.
I am not sure what it would be in my house.
I have never measured it in here...I do believe I remember the Mex telling me that having the air conditioner running lowers the humidity level in my house?

@RUNuts Can you answer this question for me please.

This time of year, we are running 60-80% humidity. Depending on how cold the house is, inside will be drier. Not a lot, but some. 40% if you keep it subartic. But figure high 60s.

Hope this helped.

THANKS Nutty!

I just checked my calibrated humidity gauge that has been sitting in my living room for a few hours.
It is reading 40%.

Keep in mind that I am not an expert, not even close, lol. It's head and neck look very swollen, and I think that might mean that it didn't lose enough moisture. I have seen this a lot in artificially incubated chicks, never in broody incubated ones.

I agree, it kinda does look swollen
