I am to my 18th day and just want to know for sure what humidity suppose to be???

For chicken eggs you want to try for at least 65 degrees. Other birds are a bit higher, depending on what they are.

Thank you shelly just wanted to be sure..what is the highest it can reach the humidity whithout hurting?

 

[shelleyd2008]

I'm not sure, but I would say no higher than 80% at most. usually around 70-75% is recommended.

Im getting much better, cleaner hatches since Ive lowed the humidity a little bit. Im keeping the humidity at about 60% the last 3 days, and my results are much much better.

60%-65% is good. I woudnt go any higher than 75%

As the chicks start to hatch the hum will go up on its own so dont get it to high. GOOD LUCK !!
