Our first call duck incubation adventure (hatch-a-long)

[Antiocheggers]

Good morning little duckies, happy lockdown! We're waiting for y'all to break free now!
Go Sashimi!!

It is killing me that I am away this morning and can’t check on them!

I increased the humidity to 70% but now my hydrometer and my incubator are having a problem agreeing now on the temperature. I had to set the incubator to 100.2-100.3 F to get to 99.5 F
But now at the same temp the hydrometer is struggling to show above 97F.

Some people reduce their temperature a bit for lockdown, since the babies are producing their own heat now, so.. hopefully it’ll be alright!
