Yes it's very nervewrecking especially when you have to keep making adjustments and stuff to your bator.

Wow! You can see the veins very clearly on that one. Is it a white egg?

I turn the eggs when i wake up in the morning, after i come home from work, and before i go to sleep. The nervewrecking part is when i constantly have to monitor the temperature of the bator, especially when it is 80s degree one day and 65 deg the next day. Crazy weather! When it is a cold day or night, i duct tape most of the holes (openings). The next day, when it is hot, i have to remove all the duct tape.

I made my bator out of a small styrofoam cooler and we put a bulb from an old aquarium in it and a thermomator. It didn't do so well the first time I used it so I cut the bottom of a pill bottle out and stuck it in the side for ventilation. I cut a section of the cooler's lid out for my "viewing area" I just used silicone to stick an old piece of glass from a picture frame in it.

Yeah, i did something like that, but i poke holes on the lid and sides for ventilation.
