2 of the 4 silkie eggs made it 
now I have 13 more eggs ready to go into lockdown. 2 of which already externally piped.
here is one of the silkie chicks that hatched yesterday.
All in all I would say this incubator works pretty good!

I would agree with that seems like the temperature is more stable than a manufactured styrobator!

Oh yes, I get spikes with the syrofoam incubator, forget the name of it but the standard one they sell as TSC. but withthis it stays stable. turns on at 100 and off and 102 which is perfect.
