    That looks really good man! 95 will work, could be the gauge isn't 100% accurate, but even if it is that's close enough that you won't have issues. It's hard to tell in your picture but is there something between the heat pad and the egg box? I like to have a little space so the air can move freely and there's no extreme hot spots between the heat and the egg box. It looks like you did a marvelous job though, good luck hatching out some babies!! :gj:

    There is nothing between the heat pad and the eggs, but i can put a piece of plastic grid like the one that is inside the eggs box. I'll do it tonight. Thank you very much for the advice. I have an additional question: what do you think about the eggs at the bottom left of the picture. One is red in the middle (lack of calcium?), the other is small and has a cone shape. Do you think they will hatch?

    I think the plastic grid would work well for space between the heat and the tub.

    It's definitely possible they'll both hatch. If you haven't done so recently, try candling them with a pen flashlight or something similar, if you see veins it's still a healthy egg. I wouldn't give up on those eggs unless you can tell for sure they're bad or they start getting moldy. If the boob egg hatches it will probably have a smaller than average baby inside (because of the size of the egg), but with proper care and appropriately sized meals it should do fine.

    I have great news!!!!
    I got home last evening after work and when I checked the incubator I saw several cute little heads poking out.
    I am so happy with my first clutch!
