That helps a lot. Thank you. I think I may have locked down too soon. Too much moisture added on Day 17, combined with with too many paper towels may have been a bad combination. Gosh, I learned a lot on this one, that's for sure.
Unless my incubator thermometers are off, my temps have been 99.5 - 99.6 consistently. That's the temp that the incubator booklet recommends for these incubators.
I'm just going to keep them in lockdown the way it is - one incubator was opened in the steamy bathroom, and paper towels removed, the other one stayed in lockdown. We'll see what happens. Depending on what time I set them, today is either Day 20 or 21 - which is about the time they should hatch. The water level in the unopened incubator did not drop at all overnight - so at least there's still water in there.
I plan to keep the incubators going through mid-week next week, unless they start to stink.
