I always place three or four layers of moist news paper over the eggs. This will provide moisture and will protect the eggs from scorching due to the heat element on the top of the incubator. It will also help you determine when your incubator needs a little water when the paper dries. When eggs begin to turn yellow it usually means they are going bad but do not remove them until you are ure they are bad. Sunken eggs also can mean dehydration. I always like to see a little bit of sweat on the glass or ceiling of the incubator.
