I have my brinsea octagon 20 plugged in and ready to go for lockdown, my problem is that i'm struggling to get the humidity up. In the bottom i have filled both reservoirs, the humidity went up to 60% so i put a wet cloth over the top of the reservoirs and it came up to 65%.
I put another dry cloth over the hatching tray so when the chicks hatch they don't slip and to make cleaning easier and it seems to be damp now after a few hours in there and the humidity is now at 70% which is where i want it. Will laying the eggs on a slightly damp cloth be a problem?.
In the past i have used kitchen paper which has also become damp and it has not caused a problem.
What do people on here think? Feedback will be great, thanks.
