So I've ordered some eggs from upintheholler .. yay!
I fired up the bator .. put the two little thermometers that came with it in there .. then bought a digital one from Wal-mart with a hygrometer and put it in there.
Well, there is a 7 degree difference between the two. when the two little ones say 100 degrees .. the digital says 107 .. O. M. G...
Then DH took the digital to work today to calibrate it .. and it's only less than a degree off at the high end. Soooooo, that means that the cheesy little thermometers that they send WITH the bator .. are both wrong by SEVEN freakin' degrees ..
I told him that I was going to go buy ANOTHER thermometer, just to add more variables.. lol.
I'm going nuts already and the eggs aren't even here..
Is this a sign? Am I going to lose my mind??
