    Preferred Thermometer/Humidity Gauge and circulation fans for incubators.
    Seems like I may be able to breed a lot sooner than I had anticipated so I'm starting to plan my incubator, which will be a converted mini-fridge.

    What is your preferred combination thermometer and humidity gauge for your incubators?

    How about circulation fans?

    Thanks in advance for your input!

    I use an acurite in middle http://www.lowes.com/pd_79632-53921-...ter&facetInfo= to give me a reference and double check with a temp guns (acurite usually are about 1 or 2 degrees off). The probe is in the tub and reader outside the incubator. I also have a thermometer on the top and at the bottom as shown here.

    For fan I use the following http://www.coolerguys.com/840556029427.html they are little more expensive however no wiring and no adpater that burns out. The fan is in the top back pushing the air down (since heat goes up)

    Humidity I no longer use anything I just know that the way I setup my boxes the humidity is the same each year in every box however I use subtraless method so it's a bit different.

    Having a small thermometer/Hygrometer like this http://i954.photobucket.com/albums/a...hermometer.jpg is recommended in a few boxes generally middle, top, and bottom
