    incubator fan question

    I just got my Hova-Bator last week and added this fan yesterday. I han't put the 12 volt power supply in this photo yet but I have it in there now. I am running it now for a test and it seems to be doing well. I have the fan running so that the air is being pushed upward. bandm

    maybe weird question

    I flick the chick real hard on the back of the head with my middle finger and it instantly dispatches them. Not that I enjoy it, but sometimes it just has to be done. bandm

    Help!...Uneven incubator temperature

    let me tell you something about incubation temperature. I have hatched countless thousands of pheasant and quail eggs, a few hundred chicken and duck eggs. I have had temp. ranges as much as 98 deg. to 101 deg in my incubators. I have never had a real catastrophe with any hatches in this range...
