I do think the LG does better with more mass to stabilize the temps. When checking my LG out before setting my first batch I filled the area below the screen with aquarium gravel.Hi there, I also started a hatch on Saturday night. 20 Salmon Faverolles, 11 Light Brahma, 6 Auracana and 4 Dorking eggs. This is only my second try at hatching. I'm looking for a place chat with another and to ask questions. First hatch went well but still learning. So what would be the ideal humidity level for the first 18 days? I'm running about 50% is that too high? Thanks and glad to have a hatching buddy!!! I'm using a Little Giant and last hatch I too had some troubles with the temp. This time, so far at leas,t it's holding pretty steady but it is also full, only had 15 eggs last time. I wonder if that makes a difference.
So far the incubation is going well. Temp is hovering between 99.3 and 99.8. The humidity started out at 55% and is slowly dropping, currently at 42%.
The link posted for a dry hatch cheat sheet is a great guide along with Bill Worrell's dry hatch article.
