I dont know know but im almost reayd to find someone that lives around me with a bator and just give them to them.....Or try to make a new one out of my ten gallon aquarium, cuz this is making me mad....The first 17 days went very well, then day 18 hit and now im at 20 and every night the temp is either down to like 97 or up at like 102!

It could be your thermostat. I switched from a hot water heater thermostat to a wafer. The hot water thermostat had a 5 degree temp range, the wafer gives much tighter regulation. It only varies by about a half a degree now.

my bator is all home made, no thermostat, only thing i actually bought was the thermometer/hygrometer. Had a rubbermaid tub with lid, picture frame glass, duct tape, light bulb and egg carton lol
