Hi folks..back again..my last hatch a week ago went very well out of seven eggs 6 hatched..one was past on in an earlier state I believe..but we still have one egg in the bator..although I took it out after the other ones hatched and sanitized the bator well..left the one egg wrapped up in a towel in the brooder...6 little chicks kept it warm while the bator was drying..hehe..
This one egg was put in the bator since the hen that laid it got killed a raccoon..thus the lone egg..(he had friends in there but they all turned out to be duds)..
I have done a less humid (about 40%) 20 days so far, trying something new..but we are going to lock down tomorrow and I wanted to know should I still raise the humidity to 65-70% ?
Thanks for your input..oh and one more thing..my 6 chicks that hatched all seem more vigouros in the growing department than any other chicks I bought in the past..they already have most of their wing feathers in as well as some tailfeathers..wonder why that is? Are they all rossters? Gosh I hope not...
