TOS Rocks!
I just got my Brinsea Octogon 20 Eco yesterday...YEAH!!!!
I also bought the auto turning craddle. I've had it running since last night and I have a couple questions before I through in some eggs.
1. The temperature was high according to the built in themometer (about 101.5), so I turned it down an smidgeabout (100 now). I put in my accurite thermometer and it said 97. which should I believe.....I'm guessing the built in. I'm going to get another themometer to triple check.
2. In the manual it says eggs can be either laid on thier sides or stood up (big end up). Which is better and how would I stand them up?
3. When hatching should I put a liner on the bottom of the egg tray...maybe a egg carton?
Thanks
