Hi from CT

I am new to this forum and have so much to learn. I am trying to hatch eggs right now but am having trouble keeping my humidity consistent. It seems too high.

Hi! Welcome to BYC! I will answer you here, and probably again in the incubating thread.
Humidity is from the surface area of water. Meaning a deep bowl gives less humidity than a plate.
If the humidity is too high, put dry rice in a stocking (or sock) and add it to the incubator. The rice will suck up the moisture.
