It don't matter how many times I hatch it seems just like the first time.

Also I believe that time slows down more each time I hatch.

how about you.
 
Awesome! Haha this is my first time, went and bought 12 Golden Comet eggs and was given 12 Buffs, both fertile, so hopefully ill have a good hatch! I'm giving most away but hoping I can keep a few of my own! I'm on day two and it's very unnerving to not know what's going on in there, as far as good/bad eggs go!
 
Hello everyone, im a teen that is still new with this. Im planning on hatching some of my hens eggs. Can u make a homeade incubator? If so how?- thanks :) :)

Any input for me? Digital has been reading 54-56% steady while the petco brand humidity has been reading mid 40's to 50. Today it dropped down to 35%. I believe the digital more but I've just been averaging them and as long as the average is over or close to 50, I've been okay with it. Please tell me it's not running too low on humidity!

I got one incubator at 52% and the other 56%.- Maybe you can start a post on here and someone could tell you more. Can you add a small cup of water to get it raise. In one of mine I have two cups of uncovered water ( if you look at my pic you can see two cups uncovered and two with lids) and the other bator I have one one cup of water

I trust the digital one more. That's just me so I would leave it alone, BUT im no expert as others may be. good luck

Thank you! Humidity is reading between 56-58% on the digital. A little high but as long as it doesnt go over 60%, I guess its okay. I only have water in one small reservoir and haven't refilled it since day 1. Should I be worried about the current level? On a happy note, 16 days till lockdown! And I candled last night and saw some great air cells! :)
 
If it staying there I would leave it alone. I believe you will be ok,...:fl

I actually just found out my digital is reading the outside humidity, it doesn't give me another reading for humidity. The temp reads both inside and outside. So all this time I've been thinking the digital has been telling me the humidity and it hasn't. My petco humidity monitor inside the bator is reading 45%_ no water inside at all. I don't know what to do.
