Okay, i got an incubator and it came with a thermometer. I tried it out 3 days before I put eggs in it. It's forced air so i had it perfect at 99.5. Put the eggs in and now i'm on day 7 and they are brown and i can't see ANYTHING! I do have 5 EE's but again when i put the light upto it even a huge spot light It's like there is a sheet of construction paper in there i can't see a thing. So I got a digital thermometer today and i put it in and the highest reading I got was 96.8. I'm on the first week, do you think I killed them? I'm thinking about opening one up just to see if it moves but i'm scared. I put the temp upto 98 according to the digi, my other one is now reading 102 so I'm wondering if I could get away with keeping it at that temp. I'm afraid to cook them ya know. And when i would feed my son when he was younger, i would test the temperature with putting the food up to my lips. i do that with the eggs and they seem too hot . I dunno, my husband says to just leave them alone and see what happens. i want to at least see if they are alive by opening one. Any suggestions would be helpful. thanks a bunch!
