Hello,
I got a new incubator it’s a forced air incubator and we had one successful hatch but this last hatch with my Silkie eggs we went into lockdown with five healthy eggs and not one hatched. I bought a new hygrometer and thermometer to read temps better and I’m testing it before I do another batch. These are our own eggs and we don’t keep them but a couple days before placing in the incubator so they are fresh. We do a dry hatch and then add humidity at the end but I noticed the water was gone after day one of lock down so I added more and I’m afraid I may have drowned them. I’m still kinda new at this I do love a dry hatch they grow great it’s just the hatch I have trouble with! Any tips or tricks are more then welcomed!!
