Lockdown Today! Q's about Temp

[stitch_b]

Today is day 18 for my second hatch attempt. The first one didn't go so swell but were chalking most of it up to shipped eggs. Anyways I had a question about the temp. Im using a thermal air Hovabator and the temp at the top of my eggs is only reading about 98*, is this ok or should try to bump it up to 100? I just topped off my trays and the humidity is holding at about 65% which should be ok I think...
Thanks guys I really love this site and learn something new here everyday!

I would keep it between 98 to 100 right now my chicks are hatching and the temp is 98.6 it has been since they started yesterday. So I think you'll be alright.

98 should be fine

in fact 98 is is ideal if you need to increase humidity

too hot and high humidity is not good when hatching
