I started with only ten eggs and hatched all ten. They are Ameraucana chicks.

I've used the information from Texas A&M for many, many years and it's always worked well for me and many successful hatches. Here's a link to the hacthing info: http://posc.tamu.edu/library/extpublications/b6092.pdf

In the past I always used a GQF Sportsman's Incubator to hatch large numbers of eggs, but I recently bought an R-Com King Suro incubator to try it for smaller hatches. I just hatched my first batch of chicks in it yesterday and had my first 100% hatch. Needless to say I am very pleased with the...

The addition of the fan makes it a forced air incubator. The thermostat controls the heat. The fan just forces the air throughout the bator.

I am enjoying them, but they sure do eat a lot compared to my chickens!

No, I emailed her to find out what all breeds she has and she never replied. :(

Middle front thermometer reads 99.6, right side reads 94 and left side reads 96.

Thanks for the input. I do have the wafer type thermostat because I've never been able to get a hot water heater thermostat to provide a steady temperature (not sensitive enough for me). I'll try to get some pictures of my bator this morning and post them to see if that will help with suggestions.

I have a homemade cabinet style incubator and I am having a heck of a time getting the temperature uniform throughout the whole cabinet. It's seems to be the warmest in the front center part, a little cooler in the right hand mid-section and even a little cooler yet on the left hand side. I've...

I was always like Silkiechicken in the past. I never checked humidity levels and I always had good hatch rates. It's just that now I have a new incubator that is all digitally controlled and I can tell it exactly what humidity level I want it to maintain. I have 28 guinea eggs in there now and I...
