So, here is the pickle.
Seems humidity levels in my house are around 40ish percent, and that's during the "dry" season here in Florida with the windows open for the beautiful weather.
I close all the windows and reluctantly turn the AC on and humidity levels in my incubator still refuse to dip below 30% (33% seems to be where it stays).
This is in a new GQF sportsman cabinet model, and yes there is no water tray in it.
I'm told Ostrich eggs need LOW humidity, 25% or lower (preferably lower). I'm I really looking at sealing this incubator off in one of my spare rooms and buying a dehumidifier for the room? sheesh, getting kind of ridiculous.
I suppose I have no choice and I'll have to go buy one today. Is this what all of you have done when incubating ostrich eggs?
