new incubator - progress

[aussie pete]

hi everyone , well after 4 yrs of good & bad hatches with various incubators ,hand turned ,electric turners ,sizes from 48 to 60 eggs.
decided i was sick of too many variables,chasing humidity & temp stability & results.
Have had hatches from 100% once in the cheapest manual turn to only 3 from 48. eggs from own flock.

After a lot of research on BYC, I saved up,lashed out & bought a Rcom king suro 20

currently have as of today ( day14) 22 viable eggs ,2 clears of the 24 set.

Incubator temp has been consistent on 37.5 degrees C,has not varied (checked 3 times a day) ambient room temp has ranged from 16 to 27 degrees C.

incubator humidity was set to 45 %, has only varied from 45% to 48%, the ambient room humidity has ranged from 22% to 76%(rain event)
candleling shows good air cell size, no blood rings ,good veining

egg weights on line for 14/15% weight loss for hatch

only complaint i could have is incubator is boring ,

(no fighting humidity levels ,no chasing consistent temps)

hoping for a 100% hatch from those 22 eggs

cheers Pete

ps will post pics when chicks hatch
