I tried to do my first hatch and the humidity tubing was bent outside the water reservoir. Humidity dropped and the chicks died from shrink-wrapping. I should've followed all the tubing!!!

My first incubator, a little giant brand styrofoam model that seemed to cook chicks in the shell quite well. Later bought a brower top hatch and it cooked less chicks but known for starting house fires.
