any of these will work for ur incubator. Or u could use a regualr thermomtre. any thermomtre will do actual.. in fact even those digital meat type thermomtres would work.

The Brinsea Spot Check is the best thermometer I have seen. Its digital readout will show Fahrenheit or Celsius and its resolution is 1/10 of a degree. By the time you buy two or three or more cheaper thermometers to average together, you could have bought a Spot Check. You can order it direct from Brinsea or buy it on e-Bay at about the same net cost of $27, which seems too high considering it's made in China, but it does work well.

As to hygrometers, there is a way to calibrate them, so I think most any one will do. Wal-Mart and Harbor Freight both have combo thermometer/hygrometer units that are cheap.

Note that I am not an experienced egg hatcher, but I have spent a fair amount of time studying thermometers, thermostats, and related electronics (and I did sleep in a Holiday Inn once.)
