    Temperature fluctuation.

    I tried to keep the humidity right around 60-80%. It was, however, usually on the lower side.I tried putting a jar with water and a sponge in the incubator, it seemed to help a little. I did not do that until day 18 when I removed the egg turner. I did not touch the eggs after day 18, and only...

    Good news, my modified little Giant has worked well. As I mentioned before, I changed out the stock temperature control dial and added a digital temperature controller I bought on eBay. I also added a computer fan with spacers for circulation. I am thinking the temperature must have been a...

I figured that this was a flaw of the equipped thermostat, so I decided to make some more modifications. I have replaced...
