Re: Flexwatt for Incubator
I would do 2-3 feet of 11" flexwatt down the back.
If you want more room, you can use a jigsaw and cut the shelving off of the door.
Be sure to plug up those holes with some aluminum tape. At least you do have the holes though, you can use them to run your flexwatt and thermostat wires. Very handy :)
Re: Flexwatt for Incubator
I would do like two feet on each side, but i think its easier to have to much vs not enough.
Re: Flexwatt for Incubator
Oh yeah forgot. What size tub do I need to go inside for the eggs? I know one with a lid but what size?
Re: Flexwatt for Incubator
I use sterilite 6qt tubs and they seem big enough for small to normal clutches but sure a larger clutch would work better with a bigger one.
Re: Flexwatt for Incubator
picked up the 6 qt tub today for the babies. well soon to be babies. as soon as i get my flexwatt in ill be installing that and firing it up to get it ready for when the eggs come. Is there gonna be a problem with me opening the door and lookin in to check the temps and humidity?
Re: Flexwatt for Incubator
I check mine quite a bit more than ever needed. And if you make each peak pretty quick it shouldnt drop your temps very much.
