What's your incubator humidity level days 1-18 then 18-21?

You are right , I think I’m a day off. Thank you. I am having to move them for lockdown because I have chicks due a week behind them. I’m a little nervous about that change. Thank you for the link too, it helped a lot.

Or do I HAVE TO MOVE THEM? Will it hurt to leave them where they are ? I know my humidity will need to come up.

The ones that are a week behind will not like the increase in humidity. Could you move them instead?
Its been done, and its not impossible, but separation would be less stressful.

Yea, I am a little worried about that part. I bought a hygrometer and it’s showing about 6 degrees hotter and 12% higher in one incubator , but in the other one it’s showing way lower in both. I don’t quite understand why this is

If you swap it back to the other one again, does it go back high?
Maybe try new batteries and test it again?

It’s new, first time I have tried it, but it was really high in the first one, too low in the other one, so I moved it back to the first one and it shows to match my incubator
