Yes, though if you decide to open at any point I would add a wet sponge or paper towel to up the humidity a bit.

What is the highest the humidity can be? xx

For incubation, I wouldn't go higher than 40-45% unless the air cells dictate they need higher. For hatch, at lockdown I aim for 70-75%. During actual hatch it will spike up higher, but I don't worry as long as there is no condensation in the bator. I'm also hands on and open during hatch, so it doesn't stay at that higher spike for long.

Hello! I am on day 22 of my first ever hatch. I inherited some call duck eggs from a friend in need. I have been keeping humidity around 50%. I feel like the air sacks are too small to go into lockdown... Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I've attached three pictures of different eggs for your reference. (We have had a few temperature fluxuations so they may be a bit late).

THANK YOU!!
