I don't think they are talking about that kind of wire.  

Megan:  Are you talking about the probe wire?  You can get a fine ga. piece of "bendy" wire, and wrap that around, or tape it to the probe wire, then you can more easily put the probe where you want it.  As far as the # of holes in your bator, I have no idea what is the recommended placement for holes, or how much "surface area" your holes should amount to.  My bator is home made, so if I feel like making a hole, I make a hole.  I don't sweat the details!

K, I'll see if I can find like a small paper clip or something. Or get my husband to bring something home.

I tried that too, lol, it's soft enough that it won't stay bent but hard enough it won't hang down.

Hubby a fisherman? If he is, get him to attach a split shot to the end of your probe wire. That might be enough weight to hold it where you want it. If not, use a bigger split shot. I don't THINK the metal the weight's made from would hurt anything, but you might want to check.

Actually, the tackle bag is sitting on our pool table, lol, I could do that. I never thought of that.

I'm not familiar with the thermometer she is using. The Spot Check wire is semi malleable, so it can be bent a little so that it can be moved to different areas. She's new here, so I wasn't opening any windows

I wish I could post a pic so y'all could see the holes I'm talking about so I would know if it's that's enough. Is there such a thing as too much ventilation?

Not as long as your humidity is high enough. What kind of thermometer are you using?

It's an Incutherm from Incubator Warehouse, sorry I should've told y'all that, my fault, sorry.

Now the rest of the story trailer thief final chapter .now I've found the log .two miles from the thief's house. on aback way to his house I'm so excited .

I've got the thing I've been needing to make me sure that this is the right man. My buddy was right . Monday morning I was back at this place looking for my trailer . and like every other time not there . I drove around the block checked it out and pulled in. I talked to the builder asked him if he knew the thief . but he didn't a told him the log was on my trailer when it was stolen. he was wondering why who ever lost the log had not come back for it . I'm sure it's the right man and I sure my trailer is not at his house . now I'm trying to figure out what to do next . I start trying to think like a thief what I do . I'm thinking this man is not that smart so It shouldn't be that hard to figure out. If he still has it where did he hide it ? does he have another place

. how do I find out . first impulse was wrong .I called the electric and water companies and asked them . they said not without a court order .that stunk . so once again I called a friend . the same friend who went and looked at the truck . He had told me once about searching county tax records to find property owners. I was once again amazed by my friend he told me all I had to do was call the tax office and ask If he was paying taxes on more property . never new how easy it is to do a title search . I started in the county he lived in and came up empty . next I called every county around the county he lived in .got an answer form all but one and the answer was no. this was on Wednesday .the one county that did not answer was closed for a high school football game . I thinking I'm going to have to follow this guy is the only way to find my trailer . not so excited now . Thursday morning back to work down in the dumps feeling like another dead end break for lunch and try the one county again that was closed the day before told them the name and hit gold . the said yes an the tax bill is mailed to the address that the truck is registered to but the first name is different . she told me the property address and how to find it .so I left work and drove eight miles there to try and find it . looked until dark at the wrong end of the road never found it . worked Friday morning and left early enough to get to the tax office before they closed . when I told the ladies there my story they gave me everything the tax records a copy of the deed a plot of the property . and they wished me good luck. so now I'm off and running again . you know as smart as I am I still could not find it . but it was dark and there were no numbers on the mail box . I went home and called my brothers and filled them in . let me back track a little . on Thursday when I found out about this farm I called the detective who was working my case and told him the address and asked him to check it out he said he would call the county sheriff's department and asked them to do it .bare in mind that I had kept him informed all along what I was doing . I'm behind on the current job so I had to work Saturday morning but brother Ron and I had made plans to go back that afternoon to try again . besides they wanted in on the excitement . everyone new I was close . we get there an hour before dark find the land . figure out what we're going to do . no there is a large barn close to the house but can't go in in the daylight . so we have to wait for dark. in the mean time we decide to come in from the back .

The humidity is at 40% right now.

When you're tired of being raped by the oil companies you learn to try using whatever's handy before jumping in the truck & heading for Lowe's. Hope it works.
