I think I just cooked all my button quail eggs
Don't know for sure, but I'm on day 13 of 17. I bought non-stick shelf liner, cut it to fit, took the eggs out QUICKLY, and put them on the liner. Temp dropped so I turned it up to compensate. A bit too much. Went back to check a short time later and it was 104.
I'm not liking this old Hova-bator I got from my cousin. The temps fluctuate too much and I am having trouble keeping it consistent because I open it twice a day to turn the eggs.
What bators have you had good success with and recommend? Anything with an internal automatic thermostat? It's been so hot here this week that I am sure that's part of the problem but if I'm going to upgrade, I'd like to get one with positive info.
