I think the fan placement is why I needed to turn it up more that the last hatches. I also add 3 of the small fans to this hatch. The thin one in second picture brings air up from bottom of eggs and blows to the heating element. Thanks

So many fans!
Yeh me thinks you need a better heatsource.
Are you opposed to lightbulbs?

I honestly think an air duct/shroud around that heater that links straight to the fan would transfer heat better.

So many ways to go with this

Good afternoon all, sorry haven't been on in 4 or 5 days life got crazy, so yeah but fun too one of the feed stores here locally is giving away 6 free straight run hatchery chicks with purchase of a 50# bag of chick starter!

So I got more fuzz Butts, still have 24 in the bator on day 8 for the Ehal,

Was also at Walmart and saw this space heater on clearance for 10$ bought 3 disassembled 1 of use able parts there is a bi-metal adjustable t-stat (operating range of roughly 60-150 degrees f), 1500 watt ptc heating element, decent size 120v fan, selector switch, and a no micro switch, can't beat the price the t stat on ebay is 17$ alone.

That heater probably seldom if ever shuts off

Now that's cool.

I always thought keeping the room 99 degrees the bator is in would eliminate temp problems. Never tried it cuz my bators in my office. It stays near 80 in there though
