Last question... maybe . They are 14 days today and all 5 remaining appear to be good. Do I just leave the eggs like this for hatching? Or should I take out that tray the last three days and lay them on their side? Any ideas? I’m kicking myself for having such a bad incubator.. I feel responsible for these babies!I have to say I am impressed you got that incubator to work. I've never used it but like you say pretty much everyone ends up cooking their eggs based on the reviews I've read.
The humidity meter on your picture is reading 80%. What has it been running at so far?
A big challenge I can see is getting the humidity right for lockdown.
They won't all hatch at the same time so all you will need is a heated box to move them to once they hatch, someone will have to be on standby for this as it realy is too small to leave all 5 in there.
Can you get a heat lamp from a local reptile shop? That is all you need for them although ideally a reptile thermostat to keep it at the right temperature too.
