If you're having to add water all the time you have 1 of 2 issues. 1 you don't have a large enough reservoir (dependent on your incubator size) or 2 you're exchanging too much air and losing the humidity to the ambient air. Bred reptiles for years, humidity off by 15% can be lethal to some species. Be glad chickens are easier and take half the time to hatch, tho you don't have to turn herp eggs

off to turn my eggs, again

Ok, how do I fix? I have a LG syrofoam incubator with fan, no turner. Do I put in a jar of water?..I have small baby food jars..can do that. How do I fix losing humidity to the ambient air?
