Fay,

I just soaked the sponges. I will have to add water to the bottom well when I get home.... When I turn on the other incubator, it reads about 35% humidity prior to adding any water to the system. I figured the room was about 35%.

Nava,

I think you live near my area....

35% humidity is great with no water added !I keep mine between 40 - 45 percent humidity day 1-18
