    who else has eggs cooking???

    i'm on day 13-14 and dont know best to lockdown yet or not. i set 13 eggs and got 7 developed. not sure if they are still kickin because of temp and humidity swings....it's -9 outside. my temp was 100 all along. would that make an early hatch with coturnix? my last chick hatched early at 99.7

    how reliable are water heater thermostats?

    properly set up and mine holds 100.0 depending on the room temp it may fluctuate .5 degree. just had to turn it back on the 8th day from 100.4- 100 wireless temp reads 99.5 steady whereas the probe is more quick to respond.
