Just got it in the mail yesterday and have it running now to test temps. Temps are around 37.3, still trying to get it perfectly at that .5. Also still waiting on my water wigglers so I can use it with my brisnea spot thermometer and ensure proper interior egg temp.
My problem however is with the humidity, I was told from the individual (Dennis @ wapsiwaterfowl.com) who I purchased my adult call ducks from to keep humidity at 50-55% during incubation and 70% during hatching. Right now with an empty incubator and both wells filled I am at 44% humidity using a Walmart digital hygrometer. Not sure accurate the guy is.
Is there an easy way to bring it up? I thought maybe a sponge but that may bring it up way to high and be more appropriate for hatching.
Looking to hopefully get this up and running this weekend, my hen has already started to lay her next clutch.
