first time incubating

Your high ambient humidity is the likely reason you can do the dry incubation.
Where are you located?

OK. When one starts incubating and has good success, as you have, it may be a good idea to record all parameters for posterity so to speak.
Then in subsequent settings, you have a reference point.
Congratulations!!

Thanks.
I’m very happy with the outcome.
I wasn’t sure how it would turn out, but watching YouTube videos made me have to try it.
I wasn’t sure pleasantly surprised.

Lots of people struggle mightily witht their first or even first 10 tries. You did good.
So many things can go wrong from breeder disease, age and nutrition, collection handling and lots more even before you power up the device. Most incubators' readings aren't accurate which can put a bomb in your efforts.
What kind of incubator do you have?
