Incubator humidity

[Misty Glen rainbow farms]

The humidity in my incubator will not go below 61. I just started it today. Will this hurt the embryos? This is a Nurture Right 360.

Is there some kind of moisture in there?

Are you just putting water in the "A" slot? How humid is the room they're in? Are you using an aftermarket hygrometer? Sorry for all the questions. Mine doesn't go above 52% when full.

No moisture build up. I opened the valve all the way but stayed at 61. I went ahead and drained all of the water out, then added back just 10 ccs of water. It is going down now. Do you know what they mean by filling the outer port A? Because you can add a lot of water and the port doesnt stay full. Im assuming they meant to fill it once then let it drain in? I just kept adding water until the outside stayed full. I guess it was too much water?

Port A only takes 1/14 cup water. You mostly just have to check it morning and evening and add water as needed.

Sorry typo, I meant to say 1/4 cup. Also, I could add that if you keep putting water into it, I think it goes into the area B. Also, if you keep putting water in to excess, it will come out the bottom.
