One trick I use is to place a wet sponge inside the incubator. It helps maintain higher humidity without needing to fill the water trays constantly.
Speaking of sponges, I once used kitchen sponges and ended up with a mold issue. Anyone had similar experiences? How do you manage mold?

Mold is definitely a concern! I suggest using sterile sponges specifically meant for incubators to reduce that risk.

I always double-check my readings with a second thermometer. Trust but verify, right? It’s saved me from a couple of disasters!
That’s such a good plan! I laugh at myself for not doing that sooner. Better safe than sorry!
