You have the channels filled with water? Empty them..

Done, i think. I guess I'll just see what the stats are later once it's gotten back to its heat and humidity levels

Quote: Both of my incubaotrs are forced air, which everything have read says to incubate at 99.5-100. I don't have a still air, but everything I have read says the need to be set higher. If Your LG does not have a fan I think you should contact the mfg and ask them what temp it should be set at.

It isn't my bator, but I have the instruction paper. It says it is preset t 99.5, which is what the screen says, but my separate hydrometer/thermometer says differently

Call 208-561-2EGG (2344) and ask them what your temp should be set at.

Just looked at the paper and I figured out how to set the temp. I haven't been holding it down for 3 seconds like it said to do. Hopefully that will help

On the He said She said thread, they talk about LG being notorious for bad gauges... Incorrect readings.

Yeh could be.. You could end up with some sticky babies.

Yeah, that's one reason why I put my hydro/thermometer in there

There is a someone on the peafowl forum that has already lost two batches of pea eggs by incubating at 99.5 instead of 102 with their still air. Please do call the number in my previous post and get their input.
