Sebastopol hatching conflicting advice

My air cell seems to be on track for day 14 from the images I have found representing the same time frame. This IS MY FIRST RODEO, so I didn't start with weighing each egg. I will be watching closely and try to bring it down to 50. The nights are easy, its the day time that gets harder to keep low. Hopefully the lows and highs are averaging where it needs to be.

If you are having issues with it you can always toss dry rice in the bottom in a bowl. if it's a cabinet 2/3 cups is more than enough. Table tops maybe just 1 cup or so in a pinch if you are worried about the water not wicking off quick enough just as an fyi.

That is a great idea! Thank you. I was just sitting here fretting over it and how to get it down. I am definitely not putting more water in it but I am misting. The misting makes it spike which is understandable.

Speaking about humidity. I incubate all eggs, from chicken to Goose at 35% - 45% then at lockdown, boost it to 55% - 65%.

I've got duck eggs in the incubator currently.
