I hatch alot of eggs-----sure would not want my first 18 days to be that high, but those settings might work in your area.I think most things I read say around 55 early stages and 65/70% last few days?

Hi Gary. What day are you on, or have you not started yet? I recommend that you not set eggs until you've had that bator up and running for a few days. You also should calibrate your hygrometer and your thermometer. I like to calibrate my thermometer to 100*F by using a medical grade thermometer in a cup of 100* water. Many hatchers are finding that keeping the humidity down to 30 - 40% during the first 18 days makes a much more successful hatch. I recommend that you read "Hatching eggs 101" in the learning center before starting to incubate. There are plenty of other awesome articles there to get you off to a successful hatch.HELLO......HELP
I have just got a new incubator its a Janoel 48 tilts rather than turns. Problem is I can't find anywhere as to how much water I should be putting in at the start of incubation. It has five channels and small ones on each corner....anyone else using one of these....regards gary
So you do a staggered hatch? If so, please tell us about how you manage it with humidity... etc. Do you have a hatching bator, or incubate and hatch all in the same bator? Congrats on the hatch. That's quite the pile of little chicks! Do you have a ready market for them, especially at this time of the year???
