my 1 1/2 yr old skin kid seems to like to take the cool red vents off my bator! Lil stinker! No worries I caught it all in time.
My goodness I dont think I was this nervous giving birth myself!

whats eveyones temps set at? im at like 99.9
 
I managed to get my eggs set at around midnight last night, so I'm a bit behind y'all! Temp holding between 99.5 and 101.5 and humidity around 50%. Now, the waiting game!
 
My temp is holding pretty steady between 99.3 and 99.9, but mostly on the lower end. I am so fearful of a temp spike, I'm thinking i'm best to let them stay a little cooler. It is only Day 2 and I'm on pins and needles!!! I am counting correctly, right? I figure Sunday was really Day 1, as in 24 hours after setting. I left the eggs to settle for about 15 hours prior to setting in the bator (since they were shipped). Does that sound about right??? I've heard anywhere from 12 to 24 hours, but I wanted to have plenty of time to stick around and make sure my temp rebounded appropriately. My humidity is at 38% today, but went as high as 50%. I'm not planning to bother it until we break under the 30s.
 
i finally got my temp to stay around 99.3, my humidity keeps going up and down, right now it is holding steady at 45% is this ok...
ps I put them in the incubator yesterday at 8 am...

I set my first eggs Friday evening! I'm so excited! We have a mix of Silkies, Polish, Mille Fleur d'uccles, and Modern Game. So glad I found some hatching buddies!
