I have 2 Farm Innovators 4250. I ran them both for 2 days, and the bator temp versus backup thermometer were within half a degree of each other (99.5-100). I put 20 eggs in each bator today (didn’t want all my eggs in one “basket”!). Using an infrared thermometer six hours later, one bator is running cool (egg surface temps 96-98) and the other has surface temps of 98-104!?! I upped the temp setting of the cooler bator by 0.5 degrees. I moved the hottest eggs in the second bator to the “cooler” area.
Any thoughts? Is surface temp different than bator temp? I am inclined to trust the infrared thermometer over the other two...
I knew this would be nerve wracking process, but I thought I’d make it more than 6 hours!
Thanks!
