    We have a chick the dosent fully extend its legs to walk. It sits down a lot compared to the 15 others. We are new to chickens. Any advice? It eats, drinks, is passive compared to the others.

    THANKS!! It really is very simple, stopped at a 2nd hand store and just let the mind wonder on what I could use. It helped that I looked a nearly every bator pic on BYC

    Here is where I researched the product, bought it on eBay along with the digital temp/hygro. Saved a few $$$ http://incubatorwarehouse.com/incukit-xl.html

    The heat source is a 100w kit from incukit. It has the heating element, fan, and digital thermostat all in one unit. I read the "hatching 101" and I am going to get the humidity up to 70ish at lockdown. This is our first hatch, Friday is our first candle!! (Day 7)

    Could not be happier!! This incukit kicks ***, it only wavers .3 degrees up and down!! I keep on resetting the min/max on my thermometer /hygrometer thinking I might see it change more than that!! Humidity is holding at 45-47!! Does anybody adjust the temps the farther along they get?
