Little Giant 9200 Still Air Incubator - humidity

We've got movement!!!! The chick in the Silkie egg was moving a lot. I've never seen a chick move in the egg before. And in 2 others, I saw them moving and possibly 1 more. The shells are thick and just dark enough to where I can't make out the chick. The other eggs in there look just like the ones I saw them movement in. Dark on one side (due to them laying on their side) and clear on the other. SOOOO happy. I'm going to candle again on day 14 to weed out the bad ones. I have my suspicions a few quit, but I've learned to wait just in case lol. I thought the Silkie egg had the blood ring, so I was about to examine a little further then go crack it open. Then he/she started moving as to say, "No! Wait! I'm still alive!" The veins were so thick it really looked like the blood ring. I'm satisficed they made it this far. The incubator thermometer was reading around 104-105 but the aqua was reading a steady 100. Crazy right?! If I would have listened to the built in one like I did before, they'd be dead.
 
Congrats! My sister just bought 14 baby ducks today. They are so cute but they were a little dehydrated which cause "spasms" in 5 of their necks. I gave the water with sugar and salt and it has almost completely quit. Only 1 is doing it every so often but nothing like it was. We've decided to keep 4. There so cute! I want to scream they're so cute but my voice is half gone due to my sister going me a cold.
 
One pipped on the wrong end and didn't make it. The other 5 all have pips. So we will see

Here's the video I just took of the Silkie kicking its leg in the egg. It's head is to the left of its leg. My candler quit working so I had to use a cellphone flashlight which, just my luck, cut off towards the end of the video.

The video isn't that good because of the camera but don't watch it in full screen and it's easier to see. Or I zoomed out at the very end before the light cut off and you can see it there too.
