Zodiac Hatch-A-Long - Waxing Moon in Fruitful Signs HAL

[Mama Bay]

Leave it at 35 to 45%. That is still a "dry hatch" and works for most breeds.

How? There's no water in there now. I just stuck a new bone dry sponge in there to see if it'll help... I still have the popcorn in there too...

How high does it go without water?

Adding popcorn to lower or using a cup with the lid cut out to increase slightly. Adding a dehumidifier if humidity goes over 55%

This is the little cup:



It fits on it's side next to the turner rails. Each cup raised humidity about 5%.

If you are using a styro bator..are your red plugs out? I have found that those plugs hold humidity in

Yes!

Remove the plugs and toss them.

No plugs... I'm gonna check when I get home to see if the sponge and pop corn worked.

I think rice works too.

Im wondering about "damp rid"

Bama, have you heard from hockeydad lately about our grandchicks?? I'm just wondering how they all turned out...

 

[ChickenCanoe]

I'm wondering if anyone has tracked their Zodiac hatch rates compared to other hatch rates not scheduled by the moon signs.
I believe the philosophy is that the chicks that hatch under these signs will be more vigorous as the grow.
I'm probably going to do a couple large settings. One at the end of the month so they'll hatch under the waning moon and another in the proper timing and compare the two hatches.

It has been a while since I last heard from him. 7 of mine hatched for him. I forget his total number
