Mine is non digital brand name Taylor and I found it at the local hardware store, so far so good. It only cost my $7.99

I have a digital AcuRite Humidity/Temperature bought at Wal-Mart for $9.

The correct word is "hygrometer."
Measuring instrument for measuring the relative humidity of the atmosphere.

An hydrometer is a measuring instrument for determining the specific gravity of a liquid or solid.

I didn't know that when I first started incubating eggs, either.

Okay, so where did you get a good HYGROMETER!!!!!

Sorry, I just find that funny because I was calling it a hygrometer earlier tonight and my hubby corrected me and said it was a hydrometer.

Anyway where can I get a good one? What is a good brand? I have the one you can buy at Wal mart. I also have one I got from cigar shop. Honestly I don't thin either one is accurate. Every time I go in there it says the humidity has changed drastically. Not to mention before I put them in there was a 10 degree discrepancy. So I would like to know where I can actually get one that I can trust in.

Thanks for your help,
MIchelle
