So excited got my muscovy eggs today first time with duck eggs quick question I have heard anywhere for 50-70% humidity for duck eggs which is right? Right now its at 60 is that ok? and I have more serama eggs coming from Frank this wknd yipee.

So did they make it there in one piece?

I hope so!! Since I don't know what kind of incubator you have here are instructions for both!

For still-air incubators the temperature within the incubator should be maintained at approximately 102oF (39oC) with 60 to 65% relative humidity. The thermometer should be placed at average egg height. Water pans should be filled just prior to use and water replaced every 3 to 4 days throughout the incubation period. The eggs should be placed horizontally and turned 180 degrees on the long axis, 3 or more times per day (an odd number). In forced-air incubators a dry bulb temperature of 99.5oF (37.5oC) and a wet bulb temperature of 88oF (31.5oC; equivalent to 65% relative humidity) are recommended.



Let me know how the hatch goes!!
