Well I took the cup out and checked the water and there was to much water. So I redid everything and measured it all so we shall see.

I think everything should turn out okay. It shouldn't really have any effect, although I'm not giving any guarantees since I still can't get a fertile clutch, hahaha.

Best Wishes.

If you think one egg is getting more moisture than it should, place a dry paper towel over it for a few hours. Be very careful because this can rob more moisture from the egg than you would expect.

if mold start to accur then put athletes foot powder on them. the mold will come from too much moisture aand can kill the eggs. just to make sure u dont put too much.
