    Egg tub trouble

    Hey everyone,

    the eggs are now almost 7 weeks in the incubator and the whole time there has been Some condensation on the lid and I took that as a sign the humidity was high enough but now nearing the end the condensation on the lid is getting so high water drops fall on the eggs when I open the tub.

    when I leave the lid on the drops stay on the lid and slowly roll to the side (got the egg box slightly tilted) but when I open the tub some drops fall on the eggs, is this a problem, even this far in and if so what can I do about it?

    Maybe wipe off the water when you check on them, or don't even check them at all. Only 6 days left for day 55 anyway.

    Re: Egg tub trouble

    As long as the condensation is not consistently falling on the eggs throughout incubation there is nothing to worry about, especially so late in.

    Breeding is a lot of tweaking at first, at some point you will be able to have the right humidity with minimum condensation to none at all on the side.

    Humidity toward the end however is normal as the eggs temps increase as well, which is why airing out and wiping off the condensation during the last week (every other day) is often recommended.
