How do you keep temp stable?  My humidity looks good, but keeping the temp stable is going to be a challenge.  I really just need to make it with the homemade one for 5 days to see if anything develops to replace anything that didnt take in my Brinsea.  If the homemade bator stays between 97-101 with the eggs be ok?  Are fluctuations ok?

Okay, I think can do that. The highest it got today was 101, no eggs in there until tonight.

Alrght, im still saving up eggs for my hatch, but right now i have 18 eggs, 1 Buff Orpington, 5 white leghorn X Americana. 5 Full Blood Americana. 7 RIR X Americana. Im shooting for over 30 eggs. Ill tell yall when i set them. I currently have eggs in my bator that are due to hatch the 2nd and 3rd. I already have a pip. So when i get all these chickities out of my bator, i will put the eggs in. So i may be a couple days late. But who cares. thumbsup.gif
