Did you poke holes in the egg container?? I think on there it said that he doesnt, but just checks on it weekly. I wanted to see how everyone was doing it for their leo eggs.

I am not using that particular system but I am using Albey's method. I put a few very small holes in my incubator box (with the tip of a knife) and I have not had a problem with humidity loss. You don't need to put holes in the incubator box, just don't forget to open the box up at least once a week for air exchange. Even with the few small holes, I still open the tupperware up once or twice a week for air exchange.

Thanks. The only difference is Albey uses a hovabator and I dont think he adds water to the bottom, so there is no extra humidity outside of the egg box, i think.
