Mar 19, 2008 #3 twigg Cooped up 11 Years Mar 2, 2008 1,389 17 171 Tulsa The wriggler should be at the same level as the eggs, and showing a temp very close to the internal egg temp. Over 100F is a little high, esp. as *a little low* is generally safer than high. I would make very small adjustments over a period of several hours and see if I could bring the wriggler temp. down to 99.5F

Mar 19, 2008 Thread starter #4 tberggren Crowing 15 Years Jan 20, 2008 462 77 301 Ithaca NY It's 99.5 now but the light is flickering, should I bump the knob a hair or leave it alone, Thanks
