This is the first time I've tried to hatch eggs, and I'm kinda worried about the temps. I have an LG still air 'bator, with egg turner. The temperature just will not remain constant. First thing in the morning, it's about 98.8, by the end of the day it's about 100.8. I don't know if I should adjust it or not. I know in humans, we tend to have the lowest body temperature first thing in the morning and the highest body temperature in the evening. If chickens are the same, then it would make sense to leave the 'bator alone. The problem is, if I try to adjust it even a little, the temperature goes WAY up or WAY down (not sure, I may have already fried my eggs when it shot up to 105 for about 20 minutes).
Ok, that's it for my long, rambling message. What do you think?
