Start with 3/8 inch holes or 10 mm which ever you use in opposite corners go from there to adjust humidity make more holes or plug holes

I have never had embryos die due to a lack of oxygen they simply don't need that much. Also light bulbs continue to put off heat for several seconds after they shut off just like a heating element I have used both over the years I have lost hatches due to light bulbs burning out heating element...

I have built several incubators over the years and find the temperature stays most stable with the heat directly on the intake side of the fan and the thermostat probe connected directly to the output side of the fan this makes is cycle on and off more and quicker for less temperature swing. The...

that looks like a 220 volt plug may do you have 220 volt power

I'm glad I could help I hope it works out great for you

My DIY incubators are small enough to keep indoors so I don't have to worry about Cooling. If I was going to install cooling on incubator I would use a peltier cooler controlled by a stc-1000 temp controller because it has two relays to control both heat and Cooling. This type of cooling unit...

You want the fan to run continuously heat rises so without the fan the incubator will be tend to be warmer at the ceiling then it is at the floor the fan helps prevent that

I agree with Egghead about the egg probes and as far as the incubator kit he's right about that to you can buy for 50 bucks or build it for thirty bucks

Both are 110 volt input exactly the same unit one is just offered $3 cheaper LOL oh I forgot you don't text that means laugh out loud

That probe goes to my thermometer hygrometer it only reads temperature and humidity and does not control anything. On the thermostat the wafer disc itself expands and contracts to open and close a switch that runs the lights no probe is necessary with it. I have the wafer thermostat in 1...

Here you can see the platform the eggs set on is 1x1 welded wire I use that the first 18 days it keeps the eggs from rolling around and I can reach my finger through to adjust the mouse pad for humidity and use a funnel to add water. For the last three days of incubation I remove the 1 inch...

In this picture you can see the water bottles I have for heat sinks and the containers that hold water for humidity the mouse pad is removed here to get maximum humidity for lockdown

I will tell you what has been working great for me for many years others may have different ideas and opinions. The first one I made out of a broken microwave about 15 years ago it has served me well I have gotten a hundred percent patch rate out of it more than once but it it has been a...

You can get a nice incubator quite a bit cheaper if you don't need an automatic Turner I use homemade incubators and hand turn before work after work and right before I go to bed. You should go to incubator warehouse.com and look at the offerings there a lot of people have good luck with the...

From my research the gold sex links comets and Cinnamon Queen sex links all have a Rhode Island red or New Hampshire red parent so breeding back to Rhode Island red you're going to end up will most likely look like Rhode Island red or New Hampshire red

I believe PCB stands for printed circuit board which is a very generic term and does not really describe the controller you would need I think you're better off getting a different motor

It is very difficult to have a successful hatch controlling the heat with a dimmer switch. Because the dimmer switch is not capable of as you say maintaining the temp it takes a human constantly adjusting the dimmer switch day and night to maintain the temperature. Every time you open the...

This is my cooler incubator plastic not Styrofoam all components mounted in the lid I used light bulbs from Walmart sold as 40 watt that say actual usage 29 Watt. You must use a thermostat to control heat you can see I have a wafer thermostat also has a hundred and ten volt high volume fan it...

That looks like a young slw to me.

Have you considered coturnix quail they are fairly quiet easy to care for and produce lots of small eggs
