Ok, in middle of test run with egg box setup and incubator. Had some trouble with fluctuating temperatures, but a bunch of water bottles on the bottom completely and totally stabalized the temperatures.

I have a little iris tub that was covered with press and seal plastic wrap and the tub lid. Inside I have very wet vermiculite (pretty much mud) with an egg crate with 1/2 inch pvc pipe legs... so the vermiculite / water will not actual touch the eggs.

I have the temperature set at exactly 90 degrees, with little to no fluctuation. They humidity is reading at 98% and there is some condensation on the tub walls. 3 questions:

1.) what does the condensation on the tub walls mean? anything to be worried about?

2.) with this setup, is there any such thing as too much humidity if the eggs are not in direct contact with the substrate?

3.) That press and seal pretty much makes the tub air tight. Is there a need to let fresh air into the box? If so, how often should that be done


Thanks Everybody!
