HALLELUJAH!!!! Keep us postedBarredBuff said:About burnt the house down, feeling the bator up. There are holes in the bottom and I put water there and it went out and into the surge protector, I turned and unplugged it. Saving the day, then plugged the bator up to the wall with the brooder lamp. Humidity is about 66 and rising a bit, temp is restabilizing. Turner is out of the bator, eggs on the wire. Let it begin
It should level off in the next hour. If it does reach 80 though, pull it for about 10 minutes and see if it'll drop down again.BarredBuff said:
Okay thanks!Wannabefree said:
I wouldn't worry unless it gets below 60 actually. I usually run mine at about that for hatch. It can be too wet and keep fluid built up in the egg and cause them to pip and drown. Since it has been elevated, you should be good unless it falls below 60. If it gets that low, just barely crack the bator open enough to spritz some warm water from a spray bottle just under the lid, or you can do it through the top vent hole either one, and that will generally raise it on back up.BarredBuff said:
Okay thanks!!! AGAIN!Wannabefree said:
That's good! It will fluctuate a bit, but that is a good level. Mine rarely gets to 75 during lockdown and they hatch well. I have even had a few 100% hatches, so no worries Buff!BarredBuff said:
