its been a few days since firing up my incubator, so last night I decided, after steadily monitoring the temp flux, to place the eggs into the bator finally! I had turned them manually a couple times a day. Here are the weights at set. Any feedback is appreciated. I tried to locate air cells on them, but it was difficult to see them to get a tracing of it, will it be ok?

Date Egg ID
D1
grams
21-Dec
1 Turkey 67.5
2 Turkey 66
3 Barred 67.5
4 Barred 63.5
5 Os 13 66
6 Os 13 64.5
7 Hutch 52
8 Hutch DB 56
9 Hutch 55.5
10 Hutch DB 56.5
11 Hutch DB 56
12 Hutch 54.5
13 Hutch DB 65
14 Hutch 56
15 Hutch DB 50
16 Main 62.5
17 Main G 46
18 Main G 44.5

So with the fluctuations of the temp, I decided to bump up the bator temp by 0.5 F, it now has been steady at 100.00 and 99.5. Which before it was set at 99.5 and was fluctuating between 99.5 & 98.5! Now its a half degree vs a whole one!

Wish me luck
