Perfect example of the missing beak in that picture.

I can't figure out how to use portrait mode on my new phone either. It always says "more light is needed" or something.
I guess it's supposed to blurr the background or something.

Yeah it blurs the background. I think it’s because of the color difference from the head to the beak. I don’t know cause it’s usually just the tip.

We got the 7 eggs time to try my luck at this incubator.

It came with directions it's a mini brinsea ya basically just have to click buttons and it gives a digital read out of info. Just need to keep an eye on it really, but thanks for the link just incase I get in a bind.

Digital readouts from the factory are not always correct.

I'll keep an eye on it gotta be better than the styrofoam ones I've had little to no luck out of in the past.

you won't know the truth unless you calibrate a thermometer and hygrometer and place it inside first!
You got to do the salt test!

Brinsea it's supposed to be a good brand though people seem to really like them.
The styrofoam bater I used was total junk.
Warm and cold spots all over the place.
Humidity readings were a total joke too.

Yeah i had really no luck even after buying a good separate temp/humidity gauge and a fan. Hopefully this goes better.
