Where to buy a good Hygrometer and digital thermometer?

[KristaChickenWhisperer]

Hello everyone!

I am setting my eggs on the 21st. I just recently installed the forced air system to my LG incubator and I want a decent thermometer and hygrometer to keep track of temp and humidity. I am just wondering where would be a good place to purchase those? So far I have checked the local Walmart and found something that might work but its a bit on the large side.

I just now copied the following from a post that I replied to a few months ago. I have two Vicks thermometer/hygrometers now, and I wouldn’t trust anything else.

I tried EVERYTHING that Walmart and all the pet stores in the area sold. I ended up taking them all back; basically, they were all junk. Then a buddy, just to shut up my complaining, gave me a Vicks like the one sold in the ad below. The temperature is always right on, and after the salt/water test, I know that the humidity is 2% off. I really like it.

I have two Genesis 1533's, and when I am incubating, the first 18 days I do not use the wire bottom under the egg turner. I only use the wire for the last three days. So, the first 18 days it sits nicely on the outside edge of the egg turner near the turner's motor. The last 18 days it just sits along with the eggs in cartons on the rubber mat that covers the wire.

I have an egg-o-meter too, and it works very well. Gives useful information at times. I always use it when I'm using the incubator(s).

I got a couple at Radio Shack that worked real well.
