KIKI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i FOUND SOMETHING FOR YOU!!!

I tried this before I bought my wafer. It has a larger varience between temps, BUT it will switch the light on and off on it's own.

The only thing is I had that 6 inch Walmart fan circulating air. If this "could" work for you, you wouldn't have to babysit. I think the variance is 2 or 3 degrees. Still better than babysitting!!!

I'm sorry, but this is starting to resemble Walter White's meth lab nstead of a hatchery.....

Or Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium?

I want to see video of you asking a hardware store employee about which bulbs would be best for warming your homemade incubator that you had to build because you accidentally bought balut duck eggs. Pretty please?

I once went in trying to find a swivel plant hook and when they didn't have such an item, had to confess that I didn't have a hanging plant by a window at all, I have a chicken spinning the feeder until it unscrews and falls on the floor. The guy laughed and said he thought he'd heard it all but he was wrong. And then he showed me hardware meant for a dog tie out that would work great.

Can't read back. What about this? I'm at the "regular" grocery store.

Feel free to ignore Ken and do whatever you gotta do. I often handle him that way - it’s worked for 50 years so far.

I was just in the ER and, to explain my injury, my story had to start out with *Well, I was playing with my chickens and fell down in the chicken run*....... the professional NURSE couldn't contain her laughter to save her life..... and then pulled in at least 3 other people to hear the story..... yeah, yuk yuk yuk whatta riot!

I got a three-way bulb. Heading home.
