Is 37.1 to 37.3 celcus good for incubating chicken eggs?

What temperature, for pullets, please?
For those bumping into this thread later, the idea that temperatures can influence the gender is only true for some reptiles. This is NOT possible re: chicken eggs! (If that were even remotely possible, it would certainly be used in commercial hatcheries...)

"In chickens, the sex of an offspring is determined by the female parent's egg, not the male rooster's sperm, unlike in mammals. Chickens have a ZW sex-chromosome system, where females are ZW and males are ZZ. The hen's egg carries either a Z or a W chromosome, and the rooster's sperm always carries a Z chromosome. Therefore, the female's egg determines whether the chick will be male (ZZ) or female (ZW)."
