@Sally Sunshine
Yes dear?????

Quick question. We set eggs a few hours ago in our LG 9300. The humidity is at 55 on the hydrometer which was calibrated. Should we stress and wait a while longer before removing some water or go ahead and remove water from 2 channels now?
yes remove it, what is your room RH? 30-35 the first 5-7 days and then add as you go

This enough, Sally?





awesome thank you!!!
Good afternoon all, sorry haven't been on in 4 or 5 days life got crazy, so yeah but fun too one of the feed stores here locally is giving away 6 free straight run hatchery chicks with purchase of a 50# bag of chick starter!

So I got more fuzz Butts, still have 24 in the bator on day 8 for the Ehal,

Was also at Walmart and saw this space heater on clearance for 10$ bought 3 disassembled 1 of use able parts there is a bi-metal adjustable t-stat (operating range of roughly 60-150 degrees f), 1500 watt ptc heating element, decent size 120v fan, selector switch, and a no micro switch, can't beat the price the t stat on ebay is 17$ alone.

interesting!


awesomeness


@LocalYokel Look at what I found in my junk drawer!!!!!

YAYYAYAYYA
 
So many fans!
Yeh me thinks you need a better heatsource.
Are you opposed to lightbulbs?

I honestly think an air duct/shroud around that heater that links straight to the fan would transfer heat better.

So many ways to go with this


Not opposed to the bulbs just didn't want to trust them and the element came from old incubator I repurposed. Maybe add light bulb?

Fans are small use phone adapter to run two of them. Only had 4 fans for the NY Hal but temps were varying by 3 degrees all the time. Now they stay within one degree. Also moved them to walls before I had them hanging in center pushing air up. As best as possible I've lined them up with element.
