    Slight dimpling in 2 week old eggs

    Is slight dimpling normal in 2 week old eggs?
    the humidity gauge is reading the max at 99% and its sitting on an eggcrate on top of perlite. Temp is at 89 degrees.
    should i try covering the top with press n seal instead of just the lid of the tub?

    I wouldn't call it normal, but, it is nothing to worry about. You may notice the dimpling get more pronounced over time as the eggs develop: which is also fine. If you feel better with press n seal on there too...go for it. It is probably 99% humidity either way.

    My advice ... both. I always use press-n-seal and then lock the lid of the tub tight. Works like a charm, I'm sure your eggs will be fine. Good luck!
