I'm curious to know what any of you experienced folks think of my placing non-slip drawer liner on the hardware cloth of my Hova Bator incubator. We are on day 11. I did it because I had seen a photo somewhere of a chick sitting on some and had read the advice that cheesecloth should be placed on the hardware cloth prior to day 18 to prevent the chicks from "sticking" to the hardware cloth. One person has suggested I remove it because it could impede air circulation in the incubator, but here's the deal - since I placed it in there 24 hours ago, my hygrometer has stayed more steady and my temp in my water wiggler has stayed a constant 99.5! What do you think? I do see on some eggs as I turn them that there is a residue left behind by the liner - it doesn't seem to be extra moisture at all... should I be concerned?
It feels so good not to see many fluctuations - advice? experience with this?
