I'm so sad.

Wait I know 39.2 is far exceeded, But I set it to 37.5 Most people or breeders set it to that temmpurater.

I think what was intended was wondering aloud if there was a secondary device we as people who incubate could get that would warn us in the event our incubators do what yours did and exceed it's setting by enough to be detrimental to the eggs.

It wasn't an attempt to accuse you of doing somthing wrong. I too am sorry for your losses. I must have phenominal luck I get excellent service from my cheap chinese no name incubator. I do need a better one though if I ever think I might attempt to incubate the call ducks I'm intrested in. Gonna let a mamma duck hatch my first ones but at some point in future I might want to incubate some or have a mamma quit on the eggs before done or somthing.

Good luck hatching your eggs. And always monitor them, If a problem like mine occurs you need to act fast. And also duck eggs need special treatment. Everyday, they need 10 minutes to cool down in the sun.

Hope this helps you.

I hope you don't think I has blaming you for the malfunction. I have never incubated eggs.But I have read often on BYC of malfunctioning thermometers. I also do not know celcius numbers. We got to skip that part in high school.

I also do not know celcius numbers. We got to skip that part in high school.

My lazy conversion method: google. I just type "39.2 c in f" and it tells me that 39.2 degrees celsius is 102.56 farenheit.

 

[drumstick diva]

Wow that IS high!!
