    incubator temp

    I have a question regarding temp. My incubator is having trouble holding the right temp. Should I keep it a little on the cold side? I have a new thermostat coming any day now to switch it out.

    lockdown temp issues

    Every time I go into lockdown and I remove my turner, my temp drops. Even after I adjust the thermostat as much as possible I can't get it above 96°. Does anyone know if putting a heating pad under the bator itself would help our inside under eggs.
