Regulating incubator

[bluehenlover]

I have a Little Giant incubator that I cannot keep regulated because I have wood heat. (room temp is inconsistant) I have always had successful hatches until moving here and having an inconsistant room temp. Any ideas? I dont want to give up my favorite hobby!!

I use a wood stove in my LR, only time the furnace kicks on is at night...I placed my incubator in my kitchen on the counter and use a humidifier there with it....try the kitchen...

Try wraping a blanket or two around the incubator. The more insulation there is the less the room temp will affect it.

We also heat with wood, and I keep my incubators in the basement.

I have a pet bobcat that would mess with it in the kitchen as he has an egg fetish and is mischievious. So I have to keep the incubator in my bedroom.

Then that idea won't work!!

Neither will the kitchen if the bobcat will eat them

He would eat them, or usually just plays hockey with them- until he breaks them, then if Im stupid enough to have left them on the counter, he'll go get another.

I cannot leave eggs out AT ALL. He is such a DUMMY.
