Hi Sorry for the late update.I did set the eggs yesterday I just didnt have a chance to go online.
I am using a P&I automatic egg turner with fan assist.
I have it set at 99.5 degrees fahrenheit Going by the manufacturers instructions.for chicken eggs.
The automatic turner is on a slider with a rotating arm set for every 2 hours.
I have had the incubator on for a few days now checking the temperature with a seperate thermometer than the built in one just for a second opinion and everything seems fine so far with accurate temp readings.

I have started off with six eggs for my first time.
3 eggs laid on the 28th dec
2 eggs laid on the 29th dec
1 egg laid on the 30th dec
The bottom of the tray has been filled with water to make the incubator humid.
I will candle the eggs on day 5 and let everyone know how I get on.I will also post some pics.
HAPPY NEW YEAR......
