I had one like that & cooler worked better for me -- they ran a day later hatching but at least they didn't cook in the shell -- did have a couple of sticky chicks but that was not a big deal -- after they fluffed out & were in the brooder, a warm washcloth took care of the sticky shell bits. I had one run too hot & lost several & egg-autopsy showed them fully formed so I think they got too big, too fast & died before pipping.
Thanks Terri.
Welp, I'm hoping I didn't fry the eggs, when I got home it was 111 degrees.
I had it in my shop and should have turned the ac on in there.
I've now moved it in my laundry room so I'm hoping for the best!!
