Please Help!! Day 18 not what I expected

[llauryan]

Today ends day 18 and I candled eggs before lock down. There seems to be more space at the top not the air sac. Than the pictures I’ve seen here that breaks down how they look day by day. I just put them I. Lock down should I keep them turning for another day? These are my eggs I’m sure of the day put in and I counted the day after putting in as day one. Also temp is 99.5 forced air. Humidity was high for a few days I didn’t realize I needed a temperature gauge that checks humidity. So I know the air sac is a bit small. All 9 are moving and alive it just doesn’t look exactly like the pictures I see more open space.

You can lock down early, it will be ok. Was your thermometer calibrated?

Yes it was I was just missing having the hygrometer. If I go in early what should I watch out for?

Locking down at day 16 or 17 is OK, don't worry.

Would I need to up humidity right now since air sac is not quite day 18? Or wait?

If the air sac is small, I would wait. Last time I hatched I upped the humidity only after the first pip (first pip day 18) and I had no shrink wrapping issues.
