very incubator decided to drop temp again overnight.

Day 20
Temp 37degC
Humidity 75%

Don't hear pipping yet.

Not very confident at all with this lot.

IF nothing comes out of it I won't be doing it again....

I just wanted to give it a go.

The only issues I've had is the fluctuating temps, and the interference of the thermostat on the TV as it slowly turns on and off.

Do wafer flick on and off quicker?

Your temps didn't seem to drop a whole lot, so maybe they will just be delayed a day.

Did you have them in a auto turner? I'm on day 19 also and after I took them out of the turner for hatching I dropped to 98.8 from 100.1 overnight. I think that little motor in the turner adds a couple of degrees of heat.

I adjusted and am now sitting at 99.9 degrees and 68% humidity.
