ok. I read good things about these thermometer/hygrometers but maybe they aren't working right. I still have the NR360 set at 100.5. One thermometer reads 100 the other 2 are high 97's. I can see how different spots read different but that much? and earlier as I said 2 were higher and 1 was lower.......
What thermometer/hygrometer should I get? I really don't want to screw up my first hatch because of bad readings.......
Regardless of what type of thermometer you're using you'll want to calibrate them or it's no different than using the incubator thermometer. I use cheap digital thermometers but I calibrate all of them against a small meat thermometer. I can submerge it in water and manually calibrate it to check against the others. Also depending on how low the thermometers are the temps will be lower. I always set mine on top of the turner but as mentioned recently most gauges are at the top of the eggs.
