donnyc 1,203 Posted March 27, 2012 Report Share Posted March 27, 2012 used all three of the above and to be honest nothing much in them ..most people run incies dry with very good results theres enough humidity in the air anyway ..Found the suro ran the correct humidity with out the pump doing anything..Thats with chicken eggs so really the auto pump was an unused xtra Quote Link to post Share on other sites

patterdalejoel 669 Posted March 27, 2012 Report Share Posted March 27, 2012 what do you put the humidity up to when not turning if anything? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hugo1 31 Posted March 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2012 i take the inc out the cradle 3 days before hatching and fill both chambers up and dont open the inc up whist hatch had few over incs before but never strougled before they dry out whilst hatching Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tuzo 251 Posted March 27, 2012 Report Share Posted March 27, 2012 Thats not the humidity level, its the fan thats drying them out. You often see it if the chicks don't hatch quickly. This is why I use a still air incy to hatch in and a fan assisted to incubate in. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Tuzo 251 Posted March 28, 2012 Report Share Posted March 28, 2012 tuzo do you switch your eggs to differnet machines manually at time of non turning? Yes, I move them to a polyhatch on day 18. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
