Join my hatching journey

This is fantastic!
How are keeping the temperature steady?

The pan is plugged in so if I get the spot on the dial just right, the frying pans temperature stays between 37-39 degrees Celsius and then a little dish of water for the humidity and it's perfect.
I hatched a little chick from this way last year so I know it works, unfortunately this time the connection keeps slipping out though so I need to keep a closer eye on that, thinking about getting a real incubator just incase the pan fails

So far so good!
Temp is perfect, 37.5 (99.5 F). Humidity is really high but I can compensate by having it much lower tomorrow so I'm not worried

And here's the dial. Lightly simmering lol

Everything is looking good for the frying pan so far.. temperature is holding stead and humidity is lower than normal to make up for yesterdays spike

Hey @KikisGirls , for your two horse chicks, did you end up doing that as a dry hatch?
