Morning!

Pam, that looks like a great set up! I used some glass jars as heat sinks in my Hova-bator and it really made a difference to holding temp. This time I am using my water trays, so I have large trays with deep water to retain temp in the body of water. Issue I have had with that is as the water level evaporates, the humidity level goes down. Starts at 55%, and I need to refill at about 47% (that's when the small tray is almost empty)

I really like it, you have done some great work.

Thank you- we're very happy with how stable it's been running. Sounds like yours is doing a great job! How often do you need to add water to keep it over 47%?

Pstines5- wow! Fantastic! Any pictures? I'm so disappointed I couldn't get any pics of mine.
 
Sorry was on my own and couldn't do both! Maybe I can get some pics in a few days when we check the next batch!
 
UPDATE: ok just candled the yesterday tossed 2 so now I have 4 D'uccle eggs and 15 game eggs left! Hopefully the rest of my D'uccle eggs will hatch. Ugh.
