I know the debates on the issue, but for me 77 humidity would be high, i try to keep it around 60-65....
Just curious, does your incubator have a fan,,,I used to have this problem then I started hatching in one without a fan and the hatches went so much better....My main incubator has a fan but the hatcher does not..

I agree there!!!

I have 6 oy 7 of the 10 ducks eggs with good veining starting !!!! its so hard not to candle everyday

Sorry I claimed all the incubators ... maybe we all can work something out ? I just need real ones for back up cause the styrofoam one isnt always reliable

 

[silver1313]

HAHA I know. I love it when you can see movement in the egg. How much for the cabinet incubator?

SHRINK WRAPPED : ( I should have helped it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

One yellow peep... assuming its a bcm x comet, died in shell, the white plastic wrap around it didnt show breathing or anything since afternoon ....I took it out and tried to moisten but it was already dead.............

I hate when I KNOW AND DONT LISTEN TO my gut !!!!!!

1 is OUT running around making a ruckess and banging everyone else... so much for the egg carton idea lol.... oh its a yellow peep assuming bcm x comet

SOOOOOO I moistened the rest and chipped a tad of outer shell so I could see better in them to make sure they could at least breath, AFTER thouroughly READING & WATCHING my helping links!!!

2 Black peeps still in shells and 1 yellow in shell

2 no pips yet

Humidity at 74% Heat 99.5


SOOO WHERE Did I go wrong??? I KNOW EXACTLY!

I pretty much guessed at lockdown date....

I DID NOT RAISE HUMIDITY because I was afraid of drowning them!!! (Because the 4 days lockdown high humidity with Halo made the cells too small....) Not ideal situation at all.

Then when I saw the first pip I raised it, too late!!!

I keep my humidity much lower than that. Not that I have had the best hatches, mind you! Also, did you have enough ventilation?
