Hi,'I am trying to get my inc. set for eggs.they really need to be in there.
I have three themometers.....one , a little round reptile type, one that came with the incubater and one digital.
All read different.grrrrrrrrr Digital 97,round 92, original bulb type 100...
and the two hydrometers are reading a 5 degree difference.
If I thought buying new ones would help..I would.but afraid I would just end up with one more differnt reading.
Thank You in advance.

Do you mean "calibrate"? If so you might want to change your title.

As far as I know there is no way to calibrate the reptile type thermometers, and since there is such a. Huge difference between them all I would either purchase or borrow a "good" thermometer (actually, are they all in the same spot in the bator? If not it could be that you have some serious cool/hot spots in there. Do u have a fan?)... Anyway, if you use a high quality one and see which one measures closest to it, then go by that thermometer only.

Hth, course this is just my common sense not my experience,...
