Man Down

As I was checking the temp/humidity rate yesterday (12/5), I noticed that the humidity level had dropped to 35%.  I figured I'd better add some water. 

The water trays are under the eggs.  Makes sense.  So I filled a pitcher with warm water, open the incubator, and took an egg out so I could pour the water in.  All's well.  Until I drop the egg on one of his siblings. D'oh!   The egg I dropped was okay...his sibling, not so much.  Big crunchy dent in the shell. 

I cracked the eggshell into the sink and saw that the yolk had some growth around it.  Damn...lost a fertile egg.  Hope it was a boy.  Oh well...the worms got to feast on some egg shell this morning.
