nest boxes in the incubator have condensation built up on the bottom of the tops. I've herd not to spray water directly onto the eggs but what of condensation dripping on them?

If it is a concern, you can wipe off the lid and/or place a paper towel over the eggs before you replace the lid. The paper towel will catch any more droplets, just check on it and replace as necessary. i may guess that your substrate may be a little too wet but as long as the eggs look good, it should not be a problem.

That happens. It's from the slight temperature difference between the inside and outside of the egg box. I have the same thing happening with my ball eggs right now. I imagine it's not dripping on the eggs, is it? Just hanging there? I open the egg chamber every 2 weeks or so and that knocks the drops down. I just wipe off the lid, then the eggs wherever they got wet, put the lid back on and all is well. Not as big a deal as it might seem. Good luck with them. Ryan.
