Your list is getting BIG!Yes! Very pretty. I'll have to read more about them tomorrow, but very nice colors from what I've seen. Hmmmmmm....

2 of the d'Anvers have hatched and they are lavender colored! That is a surprise! I am hoping they are out of my porcelain rooster! I don't know if you are going to be able to resist them!
Your tempting me!! Which color are the parent birds?
Welcome!
I am so proud of our group working with all these super rare breeds that need help!
I might get to join you this year with a super secret rare flock this year. I will have to move everything around if I do!
Speaking of it jason how is the sperm smuggling going?
Yes, It is the wafer kind. The temps stayed pretty stable (according to my thermometer - it records the 24 hr highs and lows). I kept it right at 100. I'll get a different kind of thermometer to add to
the first one - maybe that will keep track of the temp better. I was reading online (today), that the air is supposed to come in through the holes at the bottom, and vent through the top. Is that right?
Does that mean that the fan should be "sucking" air out ? If so, my fan is turned the wrong way...
From the Incubator Warehouse website:
[COLOR=000080]Invented by G.Q.F. Manufacturing Co. over 30 years ago, the Hova-Bator is still considered by many to be the WORLD’S BEST SMALL INCUBATOR, and among the most economical incubators available. The circulated air Hova-Bator uses a slower speed, gentle flow fan to hold a more uniform temperature. The gentle flow fan provides enough air movement to keep a constant temperature, but helps prevent dehydration of the eggs. It uses FORCED AIR FLOW, where the radiant heat tube gently warms the inside of the incubator while the fan draws fresh air from the bottom vents and circulates it throughout. Since heat rises, temperatures can vary up to 5 degrees inside the Still Air Hova-Bator. However, with the IncubatorWarehouse.com Gentle Flow Fan kit installed, the incubator holds a more constant temperature, minimizing hot and cold spots. This ultimately leads to improved hatch rates.[/COLOR]
Mario said the fan is supposed to move the hot air under the healing element around. So does not take anything out. He said check the temps where the unhatched eggs are the fan could be very strong it could be overwhelming the heater. Then he said calibrate lol. Hes been trained.
Im wondering if you thermomter aas a little low since you change all temps with still air to forced air...

Oh, my! I didn't realize how much they look like the coveted "mottled Ameraucaunas". I might need to get on your list too!

No change lol kinda on hold I guess
All of what Mario said and the fact that the fan was going the wrong way!Originally Posted by lizanne

Sucking cold air in from the bottom would have really messed up the temps. The bottom of the eggs would have been too cold.
