Is a 60 watt bulb ok for a glass chicken egg incubator?

What humidity should a incubator be when hatching chicken eggs?

At the start of incubation of chicken eggs the internal humidity in an incubator should be between 55% and 65% around day 18 that is 19 days after the eggs are set the humidity should be increased to between 70% and 80% if the area that you house the incubator has a high humidity run it dry for the first 18 days adding water to the containers on day 18 (the 19th day) - this coincides with the day you stop turning the eggs. High Humidity too soon will drown the chicks, not enough humidity in the last 3 days will make it difficult for them to hatch.


What is the average incubation period for a chicken?
