VENTS?

Can anyone tell me what these are for? The manual doesn't mention them at all or I missed it. Thanks

When the incubator is operating, the vents stay in. During hatching, the humidity can spike up really high. You can open the vents then and release the excess humidity and allow airflow.

Thank you, I opened one and the temp dropped fast so I knew that shouldn't be opened all the way the whole time. I now have it slightly opened. Thanks again. I feel better. I'm on day 20 and totally didn't plan for this to be hatch day but any chicks hatching today will be getting biblical names!
