Hi guys
Condensation is starting to form on the lids on my containers! Should I make holes in the lids and how big?
Or should I wipe the condensation off every day? Don't want to disturb the eggs and lose al the humidity by opening the incubator!
Any help please! |

the condensation is normal, its when you dont get that you need to worry about things.
Personally i have only one hole in the tub, thats for the stat probe and thermometer probe.
i open the tubs with eggs once a week, that lets a bit if air in, keeps it nice and fresh.
Try and avoid spraying the eggs with a mister as it can cause thermal shock. other than taht, just leave them be, they will be fine. |

the eggs do need a bit of fresh air so as long as the incubator isn't completely sealed the condensation should be fine. i personally cover the eggs with sphagnum moss to help stabilize temps and humidity, prevent mould and stop sondensation dripping directly onto the eggs  |

Surely the condensation is good seeing as you need such high humidity? I mean I dont really know I dont know anything about these kinds of things but surely that should be happening?
