My incubator keeps going from 80.2 - 82.8 back and forth conisistantly not dropping below 80 or going above 83 is this ok?!?!? Also About how often should I let fresh air in the deli cup and about how often should I check the Moisture? Also, should I have air holes in the deli cup or should I cover them I covered 8 of 10 of them? Finally selling my last snake today last female boa is going im meeting some guy locally at a pet store hehehe same petstore that my striped tangerine is lol... Thats will bring my collection to 17 geckos and 2 eggs.

yes minimal fluctuations like you say are fine

"Also About how often should I let fresh air in the deli cup and about how often should I check the Moisture? Also, should I have air holes in the deli cup or should I cover them I covered 8 of 10 of them? "

i open up my deli cups once a week or so to check on them. i tape all the holes on the deli cup but two or three. as long as i see moisture (sondensation) still in the vermiculaite through the deli i do not add any water, i also will pinch the substrate and if it stick to my fingers or together then i do not mist them.... when it gets too dry you will notice the vermiculite getting very light feeling and it will more around very easily not stayting together... sometimes this happens on the very top but you want to make sure the vermiculite under that is damp... if you need to add moisture just mist the sides of the deli cup i just do one quick srpay around the edge if i have to and thats usually enough for the whole incubation time
