To much humidity!

[icemanchicken]

My humidity is around %99 and there is moisture forming on the eggs. its also keeping my temps from reaching 100! Is there an easy way to lower it, i think that i added too much water. The last few chicks in my last hatch dried out in the shell so i may have over did the water a bit.

Little confused. If your humidity is high then the chicks shouldn't have dried out in the eggs. If the humidity is too high try opening any air tubes/valves you might have or take out some of the water.

Sorry for the confusion, my last hatch had dried eggs. This hatch i think i went overboard with the water. Im using a hovabator and its a little hard to get it out without moving the eggs but i managed to soak some out with paper towels.

OMG 99%

did you put the bator exactly on a pool?

JK

99% is too high I think

the chick won't get any trouble to hatch since all his body will wet and no one gonna stick to the shell.

opening the bator will quickly bring down humidity (and temp) you better take out the sponge or any humidity maker from inside the bator.
