When I installed my fan the heat was consistent throughout the incubator and different heights just like it was supposed to be. But when I lowered my eggs from turner to floor, the temp said 95/96 on both my digital thermometers which were on the floor. I freaked and raised my temp to 100. Found my mercury thermomter put it at the top of the eggs and it said 105!! I lowered it back down to 95/96 on my digitals which put my temp right at 99.5 on my mercury. This is with a fan!!!
Also, My hygrometer which has been working fine says the humidty is 45 and i have all the wells filled. I know that is not right!!! IT was working great until I locked down. I was waiting til this morning to see if things work themselves out since i locked down at 9 last night. I figured if I had to retest my hygrometer I could since I hoped the eggs wouldn't pip til day 21. Well guess what. I have a pip. I'm excited but terrified!!!! I'm afraid of my temps being wrong and more for my humidity being wrong!!!! what?? Why is this happening in lockdown???? Why is one pipped when I need to get in there and check it out????
What should I do?
