Is it fine there’s water starting to develop on the incubator like moisture? Good sign ?

There ouldnt be any dew build up. That means it's too humid

74% to High humidity ? The chick egg is shaking now and won’t stop in the incubator

It means it's working on getting into position. Are your vents open all the way

Alright. @Eggcessive @Pyxis might have some more information

If you're getting condensation, you might want to see if you can get the humidity down a little. 65% is fine.

When you said you had temp and humidity issues, what went wrong?

The temperature on both incubators are not right I bought I digital thermometer and humidity a reader finally and my one incubator says to fill bottem tub with so much water and add every 2 days but when I did that with my eggs to start the humidity was spiking high so I have to figure out how much to actually add
