    Quote: Thank youi so very much. This is a wonderful idea. I never thought of setting water out to be room temp, I know the wate I was putting in was much warmer and it was from the tap. My next hatch I will do this. I hope to be setting some eggs soon. Just gotta get some.

    Quote: You don't need to fill all the chanels. This way your humidity won't go up so high. Try putting the water in a little at a time. I don't open my bator to add water. I have a hose you use for an Aquarium, got a little bottle from Wal mart for less than a dollar (they are travel...

    Please note that this may seem like I have asked the same questions only in a different fashion...I probably have. The below is a copy I did from another thread.

    First off - Yes I changed my avatar to some of my babies from my first hatch. Now: I have a question for all you chicken pros and for the Brinsea knowers: I own a Brinsea Octo 20 with rocker. No I do not have the added humidity thing. I had 7 eggs that did not hatch...I am fine with this...

    Quote: How very sweet...great photo. what is the black stuff you have in the bottom of it and does it help to leave the eggs in a carton to hatch - or is this just preference? I am fairly new to all this and I ask lots of questions. The black is thin foam it is to keep the little toes from...

    Quote: A cloth in the channels? What does this do? Also, how do you see if they have pipped internally? Sorry, I am very new. Humidity was reading at 50% with both channels full so I dipped a cloth (dishcloth) in the channels and laid it out under the eggs. That did the trick and now...
