Show off those Homemade Incubators!

[Chic Chick]

This is the set up that I'm using with only one 60W bulb. I have a fan mounted right to the light fixture and it blows across the light and then across the water, and it keeps my incubator 13 1/2" X 34" at the correct temperature.

I also made a smaller one just for hatching and it's heated by a 25W appliance bulb. With a few tweaks the temp is also holding steady and I'm expecting a small hatch any day now.

Could you tell me iwhat kind of differences in temp you see between your temp probe in the egg and the one exposed to the air?

Thanks

here is the one I built last year, it has been working almost non stop for that long without a hick up, I have added several more egg turners to add capicity up to 200 eggs now. The full write up link is in my sig line.
