Would You Please Take a Peak at This

Dry incubation isn't really dry. it just means adding no water. You will still have humidity from the room. There is a link in my signature line for an article on humidity that may help you. It explains a little more details.
(if you are on mobile, turn the phone sideways to see signatures)

As far as that egg being 5+ days ahead? Staggered hatches can be tricky. If you increase humidity too soon for the others, then they are at risk of not being ready. But if that egg isn't losing too much moisture, you can wait until the chick actually draws down and gets into hatching position, then increase humidity at that point (day 19-20) Hopefully it won't be too early for the others. Or it may come to a decision of what's best for which eggs.


LOL. I actually read that after I asked the question. Great information, BTW.

So I can't subtract water from the incubator I am using, but I can NOT add water. I went ahead and fully opened the air vent (which is the way this one controls the amount of humidity you want) and so far it only drops as low as 41%. The room humidity runs in the mid 40s.

So. if I wanted to get a 2nd incubator to use as a hatching box more or less, which one would be a good choice for the money.
