I have a question concerning humidity. My dragon's eggs have been incubating almost five weeks, and I think my humidity gauge may be off (I'm getting a new one today). The gauge reads 70-80, but the medium the eggs are laying in has dried out. I do keep the part of the insubator under the eggs fulled with water, but I'm not sure if I should be putting water directly in the medium with the eggs or not. Should I? The eggs seem to be doing fine; a couple are shinking, but I knew a few wouldn't be good.

Hi
i asume you use vermucilite?
you need to moist it from time to time .
take some partikels and put between youre dumb and finger then if you sqeeze and you see moist come out its ok.
if you see no drop /moist come out then its to dry.
then you need to make it abit moist.
you also can put the eggs in a new medium after 4,5 weeks the vermucilite can be dry and harder to get wet .
hard to explain am dutch.
it not work so good as the new they losing the cabebility to suck up moist and realese it.
100 gram water 100 gram vermucilite.
