MY FIRST EVER EXTERNAL PIP TURNED INTO THIS!
I thought I was losing my mind this morning at about 3:30 am, hearing noises coming from the bator! (For the first time in three weeks, we had no tv (cable was out) and no fans running as it was 57 degrees out)...so after confiding in a fellow...
I would 'assume' that as each baby pips, zips and then hatches out their little bodies will be pumping out the heat and with them being wet then your bator's humidity
should rise accordingly... I am sooooo happy for you !!!!

Glad you are here! I set my baby batch Friday and am also using the dry hatch method. All the best wishes ( for both of us;)
Will look forward to hearing good news
Hi everybody,
I too am going the Dry Hatch route and have a question to throw out to you regarding Brinsea's methodology in regards to a daily 1-2 hour cool down method...
It makes sense to me and I am wondering if anyone else has tried this with any success? (or) At least thought about it...
