I baught a hova bater still air incubator used. it looks like new and even still has the plastic tray in the bottom. I set the temp and then put my eggs in but it never produced humidity and the water level never lowered. Do you have a solution for this?

Hello and Welcome To BYC! Did you get the 1602 or one of those? Not sure what you mean by it never produced humidity... you have to play with those to get the humidity level you need and to monitor it you should get a hygrometer, things like the humidity level in the room etc will really affect what is happening in the incubator. If the room humidity is too high you may even have to run a dehumidifier ... be sure you have the vent plugs out if it is high. Not sure if you have the instruction manual https://www.gqfmfg.com/pdf/Thermal Hova-Bator instructions.pdf
There is a really nice article on hatching eggs in the Learning Center you might want to check out
