the humidity level is not important, i will define a maximum level but i need a complete and correct algorithm.

Well that is what I am getting at. I did not know humidity is not much of a problem. So I would maybe have the algorithm wrong. I still think the only ones that can write a correct algorithm for a system is one that completely understands the system. Getting that into code is another story, many here can help with that.
About the gas sensor. If you can not find one for ammoniac, maybe use an O2 sensor. If I remember correctly, when NH4 goes up O2 goes down. If nothing else is messing with the O2 levels...

Always wear safety glasses while programming.
Very difficult to provide a correct and precise algorithm as previously stated, to many real world variables, unhatched to hatch parameters to solve. Perhaps an ultrasonic detector to alert of hatchlings so they can be moved to a monitored area to avoid ammoniac poisoning and monitor the ammonia there, (thus not altering the ideal conditions of the hatchery) reducing the problem in this way might be the simplest way.
Hope it of some help

What sensor will you be using? I ask because I have built one of these (without the amoniac gases bit) which not only works (activates relays) but allows the user to define the parameters, such as max/min temp, max/min humidity etc...
