Depends on the incubator. I have Hovabator Genesis 1588. I ran some airline tube, like for a fish tank, throught the little gap for the turner cord, after I took the turner out. Then I could add water with a 3cc syringe- without the needle. As it turned out, I didn't need to. The humidity stayed steady at 62% when the turner came out and I put water in the second tray area.
Some folks run a straw or tube throught one of the vents. Whatever is easiest!
I did the same for may 1588, ran two tubes to two different wells just in case I would need to add to both wells.
Did end up using the second well. Never had to open the bator until the day the hatch was complete and I removed all the dry babies.
11 out of 12 hatched with no probs. One egg was culled 10 days due to a blood ring.
