Too much HUMIDITY!!

[sallywithchickens]

Is there are reason you want it at 20-25%? That is really low. I have never heard of anyone going below 30% humidity.

I think cmfarm is right - I never heard of going so low - I thought it needed to be between 40 and 50 the first 18 days, then 60-70 until hatch. You could simply dry them out before they get started.

Its inside. The humidity has gone back down to 70 now i havnt added water. Its been raining and humid here too. Any ideas on how to maintain correct humidity with this kind of weather?

dehumidifier set on low - you don't want to completely dry it out. - or turn on the AC.

Thanks for the tips. I think Ive got it now. Any idea if the last couple days will ruin my hatch?

I doubt it. i would be far more worried of too dry. I need to check this dry hatch method out, but low humidity ruined my first batch.
