I only hatch bantams and it is the same as large fowl. 99.5 and I do dry incubation and it runs 30-40 the first 18 days and then I run 65-70% the last three days.

Do you recommend keeping the vent plugs in or out during incubation...also do you wash your eggs and if so what with? And what thermometer/hydrometer do you use...

I never wash my eggs if they need to be cleaned try using a paper towel to clean them. I leave the vent plugs out so they get more air but on day 18 I put them back in. I use a thermometer from wal mart.
