The temps in my incubator fluctuate are now fluctuating between 30.7 to 32.8 and humidty fluctuates between 64% to 70% unless I change the bowl of water to really hot water from the tap, then it goes up to 80% to 85% then over the hours goes down to between 64% to 70% again, its aggravating lol x

It's dropped to 82% overnight.
How long til I will be able to see if it's fertile? I have marked it to ensure it doesn't turn.

Sometimes it can take a few laying of eggs to be able to see this. Sometimes you think an egg is infertile, and proves you wrong. I know the first time I had a female lay her first clutch of eggs on the surface. I was told by experienced keepers they would not be fertile. But all four eggs were. So you just never know:0)

What though?!
I've done so much research but am not confident in my own knowledge because it's the first time! Sorry to keep asking.
