New HATCH-A-LONG!! Beginner Hatcher!!

[frasereve]

So this journey starts at midnight 07-14-2022!! BELOW ARE PICTURES OF PARENTS
We currently hatch using a Nurture360 and styrofoam (fan) incubator and we currently have setting:

-11 Ayam Cermani eggs
-23 red ranger/black copper maran/RIR/Easter eggers

My process usually goes as follows
- start incubator to warm up 1 week before
- receive hatching eggs ( shipped )
- let rest for abt 8 hours fat end up
- START INCUBATING
I usually do a dry incubation because I live in PA so our humidity stays about 30/40%
And on day 18 I turn off the auto turner and remove it and spike the humidity to above 70%
And as they hatch I grab em to put in the incubator ( yes I’m aware that many people believe that opening the incubator at all during hatch is going to shrink wrap the babies, but I’ve never had a problem with it)

I’m not sure if I’m allowed to do this on here but I wanted to offer anyone that stays along with the story and gives advice… if your near Pittsburgh pa you can have 1st choice of babies!! All red production are going to be sold and half of the Ayam Cermani
