  what changes are you making with incubation?

We added an extra thermometer /hygrometer because we think the one in the unit isn't calibrated correctly and the humidity was too low. So far, the temp on each show the same, but humidity is off by about 12-15%. So we're going with readings from the additional meter and making adjustments according to it.
We've talked to several folks who do dry incubating and have very successful hatches, but we're not comfortable trying that.
What's your option @Sallysunshine?

TSC has Khaki Campbells in (as usual). I have to go for new boots for Duckling. Should I settle for the Khakis or wait, and hope I can get there for the Pekin?

I just installed the itc 1000, once it's up and running I'll keep you posted on temp variance. I want this puppy to run perfect before I'm ready to commit a good amount of eggs to it.

Its always the opposite here. Lots of Pekins, no Khakis. And when they do come in, folks swarm the TSC and buy them all up. I got one Khaki last year. And they got 3 or 4 shipments of them.

I'd wait, if Pekins are what you're after. Maybe the chick person can tell you when they'll get them in?
