What is the ideal Hatching Temperature for chickens?

[Chickens 12345]

Hi their,


Im hatching chicks soon and I cant seem to find the ideal temperature to hatch in a hova bator incubator. Any ideas? I have been reasearching this and I get different temperatures. I have got 101-102 F and 99.5 F? Do those seem right? I have a still air hova bator incubator.
Thanks Chickens 12345

Welcome to BYC!

So glad you could join our community! The optimum temp for still air incubators is around 100 to 101. This is measured at egg height inside the incubator.

If you have any issues during the incubation process, you can post questions in our Incubating and Hatching Eggs forums for lots of help...

Good luck with all your projects and welcome to our flock!
