Hova Bator Genesis--adding water

[Sherry]

My guinea eggs should be here in a day or two. I have a couple of questions

1. I set the incubator up today, turned it on to make sure it's all working. Should I leave it on and heated until I get the eggs? Or do I turn it off for now and turn it back on when I'm ready to put the eggs in?

2. How often do you have to add water? I have the automatic egg turner, so will I have to remove it and the eggs to add the water?

Any help appreciated for this novice.

Leave it on and heated, add water whenever your humidity drops.

To add water while the turner is in it, just remove an egg and pour through the hole of the egg cup. Set the egg back in when done.

I add water to mine with a turkey bastor(sp) you don't have to take the turner out, there is room to get the turkey bastor in.
