spreading water spots on eggs, what to do?
Please help me. What should I do with these water spots? I did put some liquid band aid to them last evening, but they are still spreading. Incubation temps. are 32 celcius, humidity 99%. There are good veins in all the eggs. I wonder is this my doing, I have opened the lid now about 5 times in 5days. My female laid her eggs 5days ago. This is my first ball python clutch, donīt wanna lose them... sorry the bad guality of pics, donīt really wanna open the incubator anymore :tears: [IMG]WP_20160413_08_28_04_Pro[/IMG][IMG]WP_20160413_08_27_50_Pro[/IMG]

I fixed my dripping issue by putting more open tubs full of water in the incubator. You can also put something under one side of the box so the water rolls to the end that the eggs aren't on. The condensation forms because the incubator may not be very well insulated - so the incubator is colder than the inside of the egg box. This can be resolved in the future by calibrating temps with the temperatue probe on the outside of the egg box, so the incubator is never hotter than what's in the egg box - I've never done this though as there's more room for error with this method.

Thank you, thumbs up for both of us :)
