Thanks. I bought a temp/hum gage today. Humidity showing at 51%. So I will just leave it there. This thermometer is showing about 1/2 to 1 degree hotter. I know my other one was right on. Put it in ice water and stayed right at 32. Got lucky I guess. The tray in there I have to fill about everyday and half. Only holds about an 1 1/2" of water. Not very big either. The fan is pretty big I think. Blows across the water at an angle. They had the water and fan at the top of the incubator but I moved everything to the bottom. As u see it's made of plywood. Will paint inside and out after this run. But it really does hold temp very very well. no flux unless I open the door to turn the eggs. But comes right back up.. I guess I will have to put a lot bigger pan in the bottom for the last 3 days to get the humidity up.
This is just sort of a test run. I have unlimited amount of eggs. So nothing lost but the cost of the 2 dozen eggs I would have sold.
