Hello Byc! I have been incubating eggs for 16 days now and I just need a couple answers about the days to come. #1 My temperature throughout the incubation period was at a steady 100.0F to about 100.2F my question is that, will I get an early batch because of this? or a later one. My incubator type is a still air, with an automatic egg turner. My humidity has been at a solid 40 - 50% and the air sacks seem to be doing just fine. #2 Can I start lockdown at day 17? A lot of people say you can. But a lot say you can't, so I don't know which one I should do. I'm afraid that I'll get some early chicks. And I have a turner in there so.... I don't know what to do. #3 What should my humidity be at lockdown? 60% or 70. Also does my temperature increase at lockdown? Thank You.
