Plexi glass an tape.

Old picture frames are a good source of windows.

Not likely, unless it'll melt at body temp. Normal human body temp is 98.6F. You incubate eggs at 99.5-100F. 102F at egg-top level if it's a still air 'bator. That's not all that hot.

If you're 'bator gets hot enough to melt plexiglass, you're eggs are dead anyway.

You can use real glass, if you want, if you're not likely to break it.

actually, I would use real glass..

Plexiglas gets cloudy and scratched so after a period of time you cannot see through it anyhow..
