Just watch when it's hatch day lol.
commercial incubators dont have lights or windowsI still need to dig out my incubators and give them a little dusting off and fire them up to give them a test run. I will be taking them out soon and getting my area set up. I have a corner of the basement that is designated for my egg, incubating, and hatching needs.
Does anyone know or heard anything about if sunlight plays any part in the way eggs/chicks develop/hatch. I know direct sunlight on the incubator is not good due to possible temps fluctuating. But does sunlight play any other part? I know its probably a very silly question because hens pick dark corners to nest in and also are on top of the eggs almost 24/7 but it doesn't hurt to ask,right?
Definitely keep an eye on it and make sure to feel the plastic around the heat source, just to make sure its not overheating.
What are you using as the heat source?
I understand. I'm doing a test hatch before the easter hatch a long and its my first time. I'm nervous and impatient. I can't wait till I see little swimmers in the eggs.

I just candled my eggs in the bator (only my second time using it) and I was thrilled to see the little swimmers! Honestly, I want expecting to see such dramatic movement already (day 7) but it was exciting to see
