I just have a question regarding the container that houses the eggs while in the incubator. I know to fill it 2/3 perlite with .8 to 1 ratio. The only thing I have not seen is whether or not to put air holes in the container.
Thanks

I don't put air holes in them. I just open the container once a week for air circulation. Closer to hatch date, I peek into the incubator every day.

I do have 1 small hole in the deli cups I use for incubating. I also use vermiculite rather than perlite, but it's just a personal preference:-)

Kelli,
I was just wondering if you still used the .8 to 1 ratio for moisture?
Thanks,
