    You do not need 100% humidity to hatch eggs and that's a great way to find out what mold growth looks like.
    If the eggs start to dent in early just add some water to the tub.

    You hit it on the nail, calcium deficiency causes the pock marks, no worries as long as you incubate them correctly they should hatch out just fine.
    What these guys said. The pocked coloration isn't an issue, but they look like they're starting to dimple in the picture, which means your humidity is escaping somewhere. Before I switched to the locking tubs, which seem to seal better, I used press n' seal between the top of the tub and the lid. Just "burp" it every few days.
