I’m thinking the old-fashioned thermometer that you put under your tongue to check your temperature.
Give the fish tank one a try!

Hi do you have another thermometer you could use? Just to see wether the built in one is dodgy..would be helpful for future use also. I personally wouldn’t stress to much, a hen normally gets off the eggs and it doesn’t cause problems, I think it is more about humidity levels at this point. Be aware once a chick hatches, the humidity rises, I’ve had my humidity rise to 85/90 during hatch my anxiety went through the roof But that is normal. Everything turned out fine. Good luckSo yesterday evening I put the eggs in lockdown and I noticed this morning that the built in thermometer said 99.6 and the other one said 97.0. What do I do? They have both been close to the same before (about .2 degrees off of each other) but now they are 2.5 degrees off of each other.
Are the Ameraucana eggs blue? I couldn’t pick them out in the pic. I’m watching this thread! I have to wait til May to hatch!Some egg pictures!!
I would say her Maran eggs are a 6-7 right now, but if I get a hen they lay darker when they first start laying.
The little white eggs are my silkies eggs!!
They are a light blue.Are the Ameraucana eggs blue? I couldn’t pick them out in the pic. I’m watching this thread! I have to wait til May to hatch!
Yes! It’s just about perfect. As others have stated, humidity will go up as the eggs hatch and then you really won’t need to add any more water at that point.Is 62% humidity good for lockdown?
Sorry I couldn’t help! But I am still excited! And you’re doing great!
