maybe Im blind but I cant seem to find where it says what temp it needs to be. I thought I read somewhere 99.0- 99.5 is that right? Im using a styrofoam homemade incubator. The humidity fluctuates between 33-43%. Ack this is a little daunting.
 
You'll want your temp (ideally) to be at 99.5 the entire hatch, but 99.5-100.5 is fine too. If you have a still air, some people recommend you keep it higher, like 100-102. Mine I like at ~100 but really anywhere in that range is pretty good.

If you can get the humidity stable around 40% I think that may be best. If you have vent holes, plugging or unplugging them may help stabilize your humidity.
