    Harris Farms Nurture Right 360 Incubator is AMAZING!

    Oh, I wish I saw this thread earlier... I had this incubator, but it was making a humming noise. Was not sure if it was ok. The manufacturer said to be safe better return the unit. Also, the chicks hatched 15 out of 19 success rate. But, for some reason I observed them to be weaker than when...
