I have gone chicken crazy!

In all honesty, I just get a regular room one from walmart and put the whole thing down in the incubator. works for me

what kind of bator do you have? if one of those styrofoam ones, its hard to keep humidity up if your in low humid area, and every time you open it to turn eggs if you dont have the turner you will lose it all, i used to put in a wet rag to keep the humidity up, never worried bout the hydro cuz i know looking at it would jus worry me the whole time.
 
I have (a couple

) of Hovabators w/ auto turners. Our Humidity in Missouri is always high anyway. I would say a problem we have is it going too high... Even though there is an auto turner, I still open periodically to give the eggs a whiff.. I figure hens get off every now and again, it can't hurt.
My main problem is in lockdown....very very very hard for me to stay out of it... once a couple of chickies hatch out, i want to take them out, but in reality, I think with them banging the eggs around and chirping, stimulates the other chicks to hatch.
 
I am in Oklahoma so i am hoping the humidity will be in my favor yet to be seen. I would think it's pretty similar to MO since we are close
