They do make adorable babies and run around non stop.

I am very tempted to make that my user title now

Yep, you just pop the thermometer down the middle and let it be, and then take readings

You should! If anyone is a hatching guru it's you
YUUUP I need this now. Thanks!

PS you have been holding out on me. You didn't tell me of the super secret water wiggler voodoo.

Mary O'Brien ( formerly "the Warden, then "the sheriff) used to give a lot of information in the various threads she started.

I actually read a lot of her posts and her website It was fun to read through her hatching experience.

Little fishies for every incubator! Lol

Haha, I don't always use one, but I wanted to be very accurate for these eggs.

GAH! Too many choices on water wigglers...but they are all so cute!
Well it's a lot cheaper than buying one of those fancy egg thermometers that tells you the egg temp. What thermometer would you suggest I get to put inside one?

I have a very accurate aquarium thermometer that I use in mine - it's just a cheap thing I snagged at a pet store but I calibrated it and it is exactly accurate (they tend to be pretty accurate because fish are very sensitive) so one of those is a good choice. I also stick the probe of my digital reptile one in there. That one I know is .5 high from calibrating it.

Well, I couldn't resist and I changed my user title

I use the kind with the suction cup designed to stick to the side of an aquarium. These are my thermometers:

By the way, @SilksterTN is the enabler one who showed me the raffle that I won egg 22 in

Ok great thanks. The ones with the little displays don't work so great in cabinets. No where to put them so they are visible. Easy enough to pop open the door and check the other kind.
