I need an idea for an auto turner. My incubator is 33in long and 13 in deep and 13 in wide. I will have 2 long shelves. And it has to be easy! lol I checked out a lot of other ones and didn't understand a thing.

Mayberrygirl I attached my sensor with a suction cup thingy at the same height as my eggs. I tried putting it closer to the light bulb but it had to much of a swing. That could be cause I also have two 4 x 20 inch pieces of flex watt tape across the bottom. I don't use the light bulb in the summer only for winter hatches.
I am holding steady 99.5* all over the bator, I have the fan blowing like that at the water heater thermostat. But I have a thermometer under the left bulb on the floor, one on top of the eggs, the one with the probe, and one on the front plexiglas glass. When I install the new digital thermostat I am re arranging where the fan is. Just cannot figure out where to put the digital thermostat sensor.
Mayberry girl, nice incubator! But I have to agree with 3forfree... I think you should get another fan and either have it like this: O <---- F blowing F----> O. Blowing to the lights or like this:
F----> O O <----F or something like this. I dunno. Just an opinion.
Y'all know what? The only thing I can hatch worth a crud is quail eggs! My chickens always die around days 12-16! Does anyone know why??? I know it isn't my incubator because my quail eggs hatch fine...
If I remove the tiny screw driver that controls the hot water thermostat, my temps dip, but my youngest keeps wanting to mess with it. I wanted digital to begin with, but it was either wait for it and loose a dozen eggs or use what I had till I could get the digital one.
