Hello! We are on Day 13 of our first hatch, and we have 7 fertile (and very active) speckled Sussex in our incubator.
Our incubator did not come with a humidity gauge, so until yesterday we were just guessing the amount of water to keep in the water dish.
We bought a gauge! Now, I know the humidity was wrong.
All this time, they have been growing at 75-90% humidity.
We had to remove ALL water from the incubator in order to correct this.
It is now empty of water and humidity is at 30%
Are the chicks OK? Will this have effected them negatively?
