jfulcher, could you share what Quintinp told you? I had some variation in my thermometers to, and would like to understand why (and how to fix it).

Any news on your hatch???????

Water thermostat was too far from the bulb. Have to have the back of the t-stat to it. Get less fluctuation in temperature.. I might have wiped out my eggs... Idk if they are viable anymore because of my dumb butt... About to pull the plug on them....
