Small air cells.

[Ms Steak]

The eggs are on day 16. I had a quick candle and the air cells are small. Not a lot bigger than day 7 to be honest. I stupidly didn`t know about testing the hydrometer, so I have no idea if it is inaccurate. The humidity in the incubator has been low all the time. Around 30%. Should I leave raising the humidity on day 18?

All the chicks are moving a little. Help please.

In my opinion go ahead and get some humidity in there. A wet sponge will work well. On day 18 make sure you have ample 65 to 70 percent +/- if you dont have a way to read humidity go to lowes or walmart and pick up a hygrometer. No need to worry now. Just see how they hatch.

Thanks for your advice. I never thought three weeks could pass so slowly. I am on pins here.

I am in the UK. I probably should have mentioned that.
