    Please help!

    Hello! New here. I've been doing plenty of research prior to incubating eggs. I have built a temporary incubator until I make a better one. It's rather small as I'm starting small just to see how it goes. It's a 1.3 gallon bucket with a 29 watt bulb overhead along with a fan, 2...
