My DIY incubator test run (I have never incubated eggs before)

[Eggcellent]

Well I made an incubator out of stuff I had around the house. It holds temp quite nicely (99.5 to 100.1 every cycle).

I just put 6 eggs from my little RIR flock as a test run. The kids are pretty excited about it so I hope everything will work out well. I decided to go with 45% humidity days 1-18 and 60% days 19-21.

I'll take some pics of the bator and the eggs inside it and post em in a while.

Thanks folks.... I actually added one more egg about an hour after the others because I found one in the hatching box shortly after I started the bator.
