Re: Build a fully working incubator for under $50
Humidity is taken care of via the incubation substrate (vermiculite, sphagnum moss, etc). I only leave one or two holes in the egg box / cup so it holds rather well. If it gets too low, or if the eggs start dimpling too early I just add a little water to the vermiculite and the eggs plump right back up over the next day or so.
I just took a spare shipping box from work, i imagine you can get styrofoam boxes like this at wal-mart, etc (I know they carry them as disposable coolers).
If you want to be really high-tech with your ghetto-bator you can use a plastic cooler, lol.
