What is the temp for a Little Giant still air?***YEAH 7 chicks now****

[texaschickmama]

Here I am on day 20 and I have the bator on lockdown for 2 days now. I thought the temp was supposed to be 101 since still airs are supposed to be 2 degees higher. PLEASE tell me I'm right!! I'm a little rusty on hatching. Any help appreciated. Oh, the humidity is 69%.

Yes, it's supposed to be between 101 and 102, you sound like your doing a great job!

Sounds perfect-have a good hatch!

 

[kelseygirl707]

Oh, and Humidity sounds good too, I usually keep mine around 60-65% the last 3 days, then it spikes when they start pipping.

Oh, great!!! Thanks guys for the QUICK responses. I just starting having a hatching "panic attack"....................lol. Thanks for good hatching wishes, too! Hopefully, I'll have a frizzle or 2 and some barred rocks soon, probably tomorrow. Let the nail biting start!!

 

[kelseygirl707]

LOL, and let the sleepless night start, I never can sleep when I know my babies should be arriving any minute, DH would make me go to bed, but I'm be up every hour or so checking for pips! Good Luck!

Happy hatching!

Mine always hatch when I HAVE to be somewhere else, even just a needed store run.

 

[texaschickmama]

No pips, yet. I have been a very good girl and have not opened the bator since I moved them to the hatcher. I am using my little giant still air for the hatcher and I must say that it has held steady for 2 1/2 days now. Come on peeps!!!

i have a lg and my digital reads 99 deg. at egg level and the regular reads 102 at top of eggs and i have great hatches with my own eggs around 90 percent hatches. sojono.
