Question About Humidity in incubator

[SocorroTrevino]

What do you use instead of just water to get the humidity because i dont want the baby chicks to come fall in the water.

Water is the only way to get humidity. I don't think you're supposed to pour a bunch of water into the bottom of the incubator. Does yours have a place you're supposed to put water in? If not, you could get a misting bottle and use it to gently mist a small amount of water inside so there's just tiny droplets and not a puddle anywhere.

yeah but like when some of them star to hatch and you are waiting for the other I dont want to by accident wet the baby chick again you know what I mean because he goes around the hole incubator But iam going to try the misting bottle to see how that goes thank you for the help.

Just don't spray any mist on the chicks. If you do get a tiny bit of water on one, it shouldn't hurt him anyway, he'll be in the incubator where it's warm and he'll dry off quickly. Water is only a problem when it makes them cold.

If you mist them use warm water in the mister.
