Best to set it up then test it to find out what temps you need to heat the egg container up to .

Yup, deffo have to fiddle about with the heaters thermostat because the temperature of the room will make a difference. I usually find that there is a difference of about 3 degrees, BUT, there are lots of variables so YOU must set your incubator up to suit the ambient conditions - Laughing doesn't that sound posh ?

Get it all set up soon so that you have time to sort out the temps.


It will all need a couple of days to stabilise the temps, so yes, do it tomorrow Wink If she does not lay for a couple of weeks, fine, but what if she lays in a couple of days ? You need to have everything ready. Wink
