The one you already bought or can't find another today?
Guess you tried fam and friends....don't say what it's for lol

What did I miss? Did your fry pan go out?

 

[Dilly]

Oh I sure hope nothing happened to your eggs?

The one I already had. The small town we had to go to only had 2 garage sales today. They have their city wide starting tomorrow. I do have another backup bator that we made from a diaper wipe warmer. I'm going to start another thread with some questions for it though. It is real small,really only meant for a few eggs but, I could start the others in there and move them later.

No, the one the eggs are in is fine. The one that I bought in a garage sale and planned to start another batch in is the one giving fits. It's temps fluctuate by 15-20 degrees.

Good grief! I was getting diappointed for you! All this time and effort to have one fritz out I would have cried! I am glad all is well.

Nothing yet. The temp and humidity are holding good. I really didn't figure on anything until tomorrow. The temps are a little low for still air at 100 but, skillets are hard to regulate any closer.

Hey Farmer don't give up on that other skillet check at St Vincent De Paul, Goodwill and Salvation Army for a new cord that could be your problem or try rewiring that one you have it could have a loose wire in there. Good luck

by the way I just picked up one of those baby wipe warmers at a garage sale last week got it for 25 cents.
