But DID it go back to 110? Just remember that we can control somethings and not others and yes you need to sleep sometime. If something goes amiss it's certainly not because you weren't dilligent! IF the bator malfunctions it's of no fault of yours... just remember that.

Yeah, dry was what I was going for, too. But I got it a bit high and it's held pretty steady. I think it's ok, though.

If anything stops these from hatching I think it's going be temps, not humidity.

In my emergency thread, Sonew said temp jumps mean hatching is imminent. I am hoping that's what's going on. this is day 19. My eggs are in cartons, but no one's wiggling or cheeping yet...

2 more days worth of hatch time kemosabi... temp spikes and then pips and then FUZZYBUTTS! How exciting

I can tell you're a great chicken mom.

I'm hoping it didn't. I don't think so. But I can't be sure because the thermometer is inside the bator and I have to push a button to see the history. That's the only way I found out about the spike last time. When I got up it had gone down to normal. But I pushed the button when I was hand turning and saw it. And freaked.

Lockdown is hard cause you pretty much lose all the things you can control! And now this little bator decides to do it's thing. But I'm going to think positive for the moment and assume it's not the bator, it's live babies bumping everything up.

ok at 103.7 I would quickly open bator and turn it down a notch

done, but the temp had already fallen to 99 because I had turned the light off. Humidity went down to 63 but is coming back up.
