The Brinsea Is Full-12 days and counting

[flyweed]

I have 36 CHukar partridge eggs in my Brinsea Eco 20....temp has been a constant 99.3F and humidity at 43%

Hatch date is April 23. so on the 20th I'll take out the wire dividers and fill both water reservoirs and put in an additional sponge if needed to get the humidity to 65%

Cant wait for this first hatch in my Brinsea.

Double check the Brinsea temperature with a very reliable thermometer. I lost a lot of chicks because my digital readout said 99.5 but the actual temp in the incubator was 96. After re-calibrating and incubating at 99.5 the chicks are no longer dying in the shell.

Good luck!

Forgot to say, I have both a digital therm/hygro unit in the Eco on the egg tray and a brinsea spotcheck in a water wiggler on the egg tray....the digital reads 99.7 - 100F most of the time any my spotcheck says 99.2 - 99.4F...so I figured my temps are pretty right on...the actual liquid thermometer attached to the top of the brinsea is reading 101F constant.
