This is the kind of incubator ^^ I am using , we took the egg turner out last night but I'm having trouble getting the humidity up , it's like at 40% now and it was 104° when I got up just a little bit ago , I got the temp down , I put a real wet rag in there but it's still not going up ??

They are Chinese White geese. We have a breeding pair that are really doing an outstanding job. This is her first time laying eggs and she has laid 22 and 20 have been fertile so far.

I give my eggs a bath once a day in 32 oz of water and 1tsp of ACV. I read a lot about how a daily misting/cool-down really helped increase hatching numbers. Lots of people also talk about really low numbers of goslings hatching because of the tough shells. So, that is why I'm adding a touch of ACV, it has weakened the shells just enough to make it easier for the babies to hatch.

I have a similar incubator.....I really have been adding in a lot of water. I fill the bottom, along with doing my daily egg bath, and egg misting.

I still have 14 cooking in there and I hope to keep adding them as she is laying them. I have two eggs that will be going into lockdown in another day or two.
