Thank you for replying, yes we bought an external one that we placed on top of the incubator, and fed the wired prong into the incubator. It was always pretty accurate just .2 of a degree off here or there but nothing crazy. The thing is as we knew humidity was a major factor we decided that on lockdown day we would put the whole unit inside the incubator with the eggs so that it would measure the humidity too . I couldn’t do that from outside the incubator. THATS when I started realising temp reading much lower but nothing has changed. We didn’t do anything different aside putting the unit inside the incubator and not just the prong. So I’m really unsure what’s going on. We candied them every few days and saw def life.Do you have extra calibrated thermometers to make sure your incubator was the right temps? If they were low it could be a couple more days.
Did you ever candle to make sure they were fertile?
