What kind of thermometer do you use and where did you get it?


Also, can you get a hydrometer at a feed store?
 
got mine from walmart, digital, for about 5 bucks. shows humidity and temp. on one little square thing. love it, and it doesn't take up much room!

Do you find it to be fairly accurate? What brand is it?

I am sure they have several brands. I got mine there, and the hygrometer quit working mid hatch (not the battery because temp is perfect). So I am going with the $3 one from PetSmart!
 
yes, I have used the same one for 3 years now, I keep a regular thermometer in there just to check, you can get this one in houseware dept. by the outdoor thermometers, at our store it is hanging on a peg, and they take a regular battery so you can change it when it goes dead. or take it out when you are not hatching.
 
my store only had one brand that had dual temp/humidity digital readout. it is white and it is about 3inches by 3 inches..

Sounds like mine! Indoor and outside temp and the hygrometer? Too bad my hygrometer quit.

did your have a probe on a long wire? I had one of those too and it didn't work as well as the white one that just had temp and humidity.

Yes it does!!! The temp is good, but the hygrometer portion of it has given me heartburn since day 1.
