Hi all, my first time breeding. She laid 20 on Dec 9th and I kept 8 bc I don't want to overwhelm myself. I have a hovabator, no fan. I used hatch-rite. I soaked it in hot water bc it was very dry. There are 6 that look good.2 sunk in a week or so in. Not molding yet so I'm keeping them. The humidity gauge is reading 80% but it feels so dry! I have a digital thermometer reads between 84-86. I have put water around eggs a few times as I know you shouldn't spray directly on eggs. I want to put water in incubator or cup or something. I have lid on sandwich container but not sealed. Eggs are growing for sure.
What can I do to raise humidity?
Should substrate be crispy, if not...what do I do, I don't want to drown them or over saturate...
When should I see the hatching begin as I've read the higher temps tends to hatch at 60 day mark.
Thanks for any help!!
