Temp of incubators

[Pbsaphire6754myingoing]

Hi everyone I’m so new I’m blue! FIRSST I joined backyard over a week ago yet couldn’t post- I felt like an old movie when person had no lips or mouth- I couldn’t ask or share what I’ve been going through. Starting with my first incubator blew just before I’m getting my Bantom eggs then I bought 11 incubators because when I put thermometer and hrdrometer in they didn’t match incubator-way off now I’m getting eggs Monday I’ve got 6 running for 12 eggs!!! I’m alone n very scared. I read everything on here but can’t be part of it!! I’ve been your silent priusoner. Please to start how do I post and find anyone who might advise on my post. I can’t have 12 babies die I’ve done things that u don’t do for a newborn-LIKE BUY 11 beds!!!! Can anyone help? Need to talk about temps n bringing home to start.
Thanks everyone
Ellie

That would be great, I’m getting nervous I’m losing my eggs due to temp is not holding up so I need to do something almost immediately I would imagine...?

Hatching Eggs 101 in the learning center has a lot of good articles that will help you to succeed with your incubation. You need to calibrate your equipment. That article will tell you how.
