    Add water to the inside of the egg if they get dry?
    I guess I'm confused as to what you mean with the water bottle.

    what he means with the water bottle is he gets a few bottles of distilled water an leaves them in the incubator as they will warm up to the same temp as the bator as well as hold the heat for when you open the bator. What he does when his eggs seem try after you cut is add a little bit of the distilled water into the egg itself so it doesnt dry out. Hope that helps ya an goodluck

    Thank you, I did syringe a few ccs of water into the eggs. They seem do be taking their sweet time coming out lol. Today is day 56 and no action yet. I did snap a few pictures yesterday after I cut.

    Ermahgeerd!
    One of my hatchlings had his head poking out of his egg. But once i opened the door he tucked back in...darn it!
    I went ahead and cut slots a little bigger so they can get out easier.
    I'm excited! I'm supposed to be in bed right now...i can't sleep at a time like this!
