Lockdown

Hi everyone. Today was lock down for my duck eggs. I filled up two of the water troughs and the humidity is only at 61%. I’m slightly nervous The humidity is sitting at 61% since 11 AM. Do you think that this is OK.?

61% is adequate. Once they start pipping and zipping the humidity should start going up, as a result from moisture released from the eggs, but keep an eye on it then especially, as the hatching ducklings would need the higher humidity to keep them damp and stop them getting stuck in the shells.

Thank you so far we can see one egg with a spot unsure what it is.
