Adorable!

Aww precious!

To answer your question on humidity left in my ovation, most table top incubators don't control humidity. You control it by how much surface area of water you have in the bator. If I am hatching standard eggs and my humidity stays above 25% I run dry and just monitor my air cells. I prefer 30%...

Awe. Sorry to hear you lost one. Every once in a while you will get a pipper that hits a vein, and you see a spot of blood. As long as it's a small amount, it is usually fine, if it's really bleeding, you can put a little corn starch on it to staunch the bleeding. It's hard to know when to start...

After they pip it can take another 24 hours before they zip. I seldom see progression before 12 hours and often it's closer to 24. I don't mess with anyone until 18 hours at least.

After lockdown the air cell draws way down, so the pip may actually still be in the air cell. When they pip that far down it's hard to tell. Just give it time. Good luck with your hatch.

Yup, that's where I ordered mine. Lol. My silkies are only on day 4 but I have 16 going strong. Just hoping for another 100% hatch..lol I need all I can get. I'm a big candling addict. I love seeing every little phase. Websites and threads. My go to humidity guide...

Depends on your preference. I like to run higher humidity at hatch because I am hands on and the 1588 recommends no higher than 65% and I've talked to a couple people who have had to have their thermostat reset because high humidity threw it off. So, just that alone made me lean toward the 1583...

Ok, one, incubator recommendations, if you can afford Brinsea they are top of the line-but you also get lower capacity. I highly recommended Hovabator. Almost all their models are well loved. The 1588 is most popular right now. Picture window, digital controls. I actually just replaced my old LG...

And :welcome

I would not put anything in it, especially cardboard. Assuming you have water wells in the bottom that would cut the humidity, become soggy and it's not necessary. I personally am not fond of incubators like that, but people hatch in them just fine. Just leave your eggs in them like you've had...
