Hey guys,
I have an incubator that was working perfectly fine for the first 3 hatches, the 4th time the problem began about halfway through and then I had a couple of crazy days at the end (i managed to hatch the chicks anyway)
So I can't figure out the source of the problem. The incubator will work fine for, let's say, half a day, and then the heater will simply stop working. Sometimes it starts back after 10 minutes, sometimes i can't get it working for days. When it starts working again, it's like nothing was ever wrong. The thing that bothers me is that the alarm for low temperature goes off, the sign for working heater turns on, but the heater itself starts to cool and the temperature drops.
Has anybody had any similar issues? I'd like to start hatching in about a month, and at this moment I don't know whether to put effort into fiying this bator or finding a new one.
