I posted in the hatching section, but it was under chickens, somebody posted and sugested I post here to get a response.
Have 3 different types of eggs that I got shipped to me.

I have
4-Turkey
6-Pheasant
10-Duck

The eggs came in yesterday and the temperture is not a problem but the humidity requirements are very different.
Turkey 60% (I think)
and the Ducks and Pheasants about 75% (I think)

I am affraid that if I have the humidity too high the turkeys will drownd and if it is too low the ducks will dry out and stick to the shell or something.

I trying to keep the humidity about 68% and hope it works out fine. Any comments or advice or stories

Here is a picture of my homemade ice-chest incubator contraption. I hatched EMU eggs in it last year.

I am wondering if i mist the duck and pheasant eggs if they will help them with the lower humidity?
But I would have no idea how much or how often?
