Hello all! I am noticing some of my eggs are shrink wrapping in my sportsman 1502. Humidity is at around 70 sometimes higher. I am concerned that the fan is blowing a lot of air and could possibly be drying them out? I am currently only hatching buff orpington chicks.
A friend of mine told me I could leave the chicks in the incubator for 3 days but I think the chicks stomping all over the place and pecking everything could also be contributing to the issue. I hatch weekly and was wondering if the high humidity will kill the other eggs? I know the incubator is meant to do both though.
Can you walk me through your process so I can see if maybe I am doing something wrong? Thank you all in advance!
