just another question

jeune18 Sep 18, 2004 10:23 AM

ok i have the eggs at good temps between 82 and 84 in a rigged way. it is not ideal but it is my fault since i did not check the incubator when i bought it awhile back. i am still going to give them a call and see what they say about maybe getting the heat to shut off.
anyway my question is that eve said not to let water drop directly on the eggs. well on the lid to the deli cup there are rather large droplets of condensation. do i have it too moist in there? i don't want them to drop and hurt the eggs.
thanks in advance

But I luv ya anyway ! ehhehehhehe

Okay as far as your condensation, yeah, a little too damp, ya dont want droplets all over the lid. Do you have a small hole the size of a nickel cut into the lid?

Also leave the lid off a short time, let it dry a wee bit.

Then you can even put lid on loosely like gently laying it on without snaping it down. Allows more air.

DON'T add anymore water , ya want to get rid of the condensation.

Have to run, I'm wheelin and dealing for more beauties !

well after a day of searching for how an incubator and wafer thing work, i finally found the answer to my question and realized i had the wafer in the wrong spot! so much for using the pictures as a guide
so the age old question is once again answered. it is I and not the product that is defective, ha ha.

good luck with the yellow heads. i am surprised that you don't have a camera phone that directly downloads photos to the gallery so you can take how them off as soon as you get them
