I have 21 Muscovey eggs in the incubator (homemade from the family that we are hatching for) and I am not able to get the humidity to get above 40%.
All the reading I have done, says for it to be 80% for 31 days, and then raised to 95% for hatching.
Anything lower makes for low hatch rate.
The tray is full of water. About 2 cups worth.
Beyond misting the eggs daily, what can I do?
ETA
I just looked at the ducks foot ( the frostbit one that we are sitting) and its looking worse. Outer toe is all black and middle one is bloody. The rest of the foot has lots of different colors with some blisters still.
Ideas anyone?
I have put raw coconut oil on, but I do not have any kinds of actual meds...and I can sew a booty if needed.
