    Re: Please advise ASAP (incubator)

    Once I moved the thermometer into the tub, it showed me the ACTUAL humidity - which is 99% and holding. So the seal doesn't seem to be a problem! That tub I found fits perfectly, so I guess that helps with the issue (as opposed to putting eggs directly in the incubator). But if I notice that dropping over the weeks, I'll take your advice on adding some tape.

    P.S. The eggs also dropped a little after the first few hours, so that top egg is no longer pressing against the lid.
