I just used this kitchen thermometer and calibrated it using the ice method. Eventually it wouldn’t go below 1.6 so that was the difference. I put it in the incubator and it came up with 39.6. 39.6-1.6 = 38. That was the temp I set my incubator on. Is that better? Do I now know my temp is okay?

I know. This is why I am concerned. Look at the sensor.

Will do! Won’t the sensor be destroyed in the water?

Yes.

I just want to know what is right and I can’t calibrate since I don’t know the actual difference therefore it serves no purpose

Hey everyone! I’m in Australia and I have eggs in my Janoel 24. I put them in yesterday so today is day 1. The default setting is 38C but on my hygrometer (it also measures temp) it says 40C. Therefore I lowered the incubator temp to 37.3C and the thermometer now ranges from 38-39C. What should...

How do you set it not to fluctuate?

Will have to wait a few more weeks :)

I think you’ll need to wait a bit longer, come back in a few weeks

Hey, I’m also from Australia, he does seem to look like a australorp mix but I think you’re on the right track saying jersey giant mix, so you won’t be able to him hens with the exact breed but you can put him other larger breeds! Good luck!

Hey everyone! The araucana has accepted the eggs and is going well with the move! She has only got off once today and I’m very happy! I bought an ecoglow brooder 1200 as I’ve always wanted and needed one, as well as if she doesn’t look after them as she’s only been broody for a few days, I can...

I moved her and the eggs! Hopefully tomorrow morning she stays on them! All I need is for them to hatch and if she doesn’t want to look after them that’s fine with me,!I will.

Hopefully! I’m going to do it tonight, I really hope it works.

Thanks for this idea, I’m just worried they’ll break them or disturb her or something. I can move the araucana tonight? I also have chicken wire but the coop is a shed and the nest boxes are connected and they jump on top of the boxes to get to another one (I don’t know why but they like it)...

Thank you so much! What if I move her and she doesn’t stay broody? I’ve done moves before and it usually works. Sussex isn’t broody. Do you strongly advise I move her tonight? I’m really worried, thanks again.

I need help guys! I’m in Australia and I had a broody Sussex sitting on eggs for about day 16 it is now. For the past few days, she had been getting off often for 5-25 mins but then goes back on comes off, the cycle repeats. Today she had enough and so did I. She was off for at least an hour and...

Lucky you since it’s a roo! Not complete sure on the breeds of the other two, but I’m leaning towards your pick on chick 3, I also thinking it is a roo due to its thick legs but hens can also have that so you’ll just have to wait and see?

Dominique chicks alike barred rocks are sex links. Males have a larger dot on their head compared to the females, that is how I knew it was a male, as well as it having a very large red comb for its age.

A better picture is needed. You also have posted in the wrong category, try repost in the breed and sex category

All I know is chick 1 is a Dominique and is 100% a cockerel!
