Incubator fan question

[Rashid100]

Hey guys! Iam new to making incubators. Just started to build my first one
i had a question about the fan: i put a small 12v dc fan in my incubator, it is faced towards the bulb and i used a 5v charger to hook it up. but the fan is so small that it barely seems to be blowing any air, i put my hand in front and could hardly feel anything. Do you guys think that will be fine or is there anything i can do to improve it? any suggestions will be very helpful.
thanks

Here's a pic. Might be a little helpful

I would suggest mounting the fan so that there is space between the fan and the wall of the incubator. And I would try to find a higher voltage charger, at least 9 volt. See what you can find at a yard sale, thrift store, or even a relative's house. Most people typically have a junk drawer full of these. Good luck with the incubator.

Keep us updated. I would like to see pictures of the set up!

Thanks a ton for the suggestion I'll surely post pics after the incubator is completed
