  • This is my first time incubating 2 different birds in 1 incubator. Turkeys and chickens require same temp. and humidity levels the only difference is the lenght of incubation......28 days for turkeys and 21 for chickens. I am a HUGE fan of dry incubation......with that being said I must confess this did not go so well........stay till the end for an examination of the results.

    The reason the humidity in the incubator is lower than the room it’s in is because there isn’t as much air exchange inside the incubator. The air is being heated and blowing around with the fan so it’s drying out the ambient humidity inside the incubator. Same as having forced hot air in your house, the hot dry air dries everything up even though outside can be 100% humidity and raining. Hth explain the humidity. I also think that adding water to raise humidity during lockdown will help. 😊

    I have not done the dry hatch method. We live in southeast Missouri hatched 16 out of17 chicken eggs. Not all is lost i did learn from your adventure. . So sorry for all your loss.

    I threw a bunch of chicken eggs in with a couple of turkey eggs all together at the same time, praying that it works 😃. I’ve done this with ducks and chickens in the past and had good results. I just take the chicks out and wait for the others to hatch.

    that's not a chigger. those are ticks. you can't see a chigger. also i've known several people do egg incubation in basements in the ozarks and have had poor results. once moved out of the basement their hatch rate went up. don't know why. hope this helps.

      Yeah, your right it’s a tick….. and yes the basement info is helpful thank you

    I'm incubating turkey, chicken, and quail all at the same time 😆....I always incubate chicken and quail eggs together, the turkey eggs are new. I'm hoping to get 10 new royal palm turkeys from my next 2 hatches...

      Hey thanks for watching and commenting I knew it could be done I’m just not sure what happen with that last batch there was a lot of death but I can tell you that I successfully hatched some turkeys currently I’ll be posting another video shortly. I like the looks of the Royal Palm Turkeys I have Kentucky bourbon and blue slates

      @@ozarkshomesteadandfarm oh man I want blue slates soooo bad! I have a turkey guy here in N.C that has narregansetts ,he's saving me some of them eggs and I'm excited about that...I'm hoping to have blue slates before it gets cold again, those birds are beautiful. I hatched quail eggs in my old basement when I lived in the city, but if was a heated and finishes basement that you could live in so there wasn't any fluctuations going on...I'm going to try the dry run on my next hatch to see how I do myself.

    En az 23 derece olan bir odada olmalı makine sıcak 38 derece olmalı nemi ise ilk 18 gün 50-55-58 arası olmalı son 3 günde 60-65-70 derece olmalı çok video izlemelisiniz nemi çok zor ayarlanıyor dikkatli olmalısınız...

    Yeah the Cornish giants aren't sustainable. Can't really argue with a 10lb bird at 10 weeks though. Going to keep getting those while they're available. I am looking for a mest bird that i can actually hatch out myself

      All of my rooaters lost their combs last winter so thats the reason for concern. The Hens didnt loose them for some reason. Heating was adequate for the hens so not sure why the roosters didnt do as well.
