    Thanks. One of my hens has a little bit of brown shading. I guess this is where the problem comes from. Will the brown leave?

    I hatched some black & blue maran chicks. Some of the black marans are starting to get some brown feathers at 1 week. Is this common?

    moving eggs on 7th day in incubator

    What kind of digital thermostat did you use. I have ordered a pid controller for my 1202 going to play with it to see how I like it. If I like it I might use one in my hatcher build. The cost for everything was about 80.00.

    What did you use for thermostat? Do you like the two smaller fans better than 6" metal fan? Thanks for the pictures they look really good.

    Yes I really like the 1502 . I had to turn the temperature up to 100.4 to make it 99.5 at egg level. After that it holds steady at 99.5. Definitely need to buy a water reserve it really uses water.

    Is the drawer front & back 4" or the sides 4"? The front & back looks to be about 4.5" to 5" hard to tell from pictures. Inside of bottom compartment of my 1202 is 22"tall. Is GQF hatcher taller than incubators? It looks like the vent opening on drawer is 1.5 to 2" & top & bottom is 1.5" on...

    making upgrades to my 1202 gqf

    I found some fans on eBay they are 6" inline fans made for exhaust. They are mounted in a 6" pipe 7" long with 260 cfm for 20.00 to 30.00& free shipping. I think they would work. It would be easy to mount. I was thinking about ordering some parts from dickey incubators.

    making upgrades to my 1202 gqf

    That looks really good. I like how you made a jig to rout the front and back openings for hatching drawers. Does the vents on the front and back of the hatching drarwers circulate air better than top and bottom? Do you use a spar urethane for your finish? Where do you buy your fans and heating...
