    So I installed my egg turner got my temp steady digital reading 99.1 the incubator thermometer says 100 so call it close...I'm buying another thermometer tomorrow. So like I said installed the egg turner and I was wondering because the turner is turning the eggs more frequently are they going to feel less warm compared to an egg I manually only turn 3 times a day I know this is probably a totally dumb question.

    I've found that the eggs from my turner feel a little cooler. They will still feel very warm, though.

    Remember. The only stupid question is the one you never asked.[​IMG]
