I'm desperately trying to get the humidity up to the 65%-70% recommended for lockdown. I've got both channels filled with sponges AND a cloth across the bottom and I've got it in a smaller room with a humidifier right beside it AND a wet towel across the outside and it still only reads 55%. I'm going to try to track down a hygrometer today so I can test if it's accurate on the incubator (Brinsea Octogon) but we're in a very remote area, so it's not very likely. Assuming it's not reading dangerously low, is there anything else I can possibly to do get the humidity up another 10%?
What are the chances of a successful hatch if I can't? I know WHY the humidity is necessary - but can anyone tell me if they've hatched successfully at lower lockdown humidity?
Thank you for any advice or suggestions!
