    incubation temp?

    I converted a freezer into a incubator that I'm running with a helix. The temps I can run are 88.3 or 89.4 what temps do you guys run your incubators at? If you were me what temp would you pick out of my choices?

    Re: incubation temp?

    Anything in the 89 - 90 range is good.

    Why only the two options?

    Also if you are using a full size freezer you may want to install a fan or two to make sure you get proper airflow.

    Re: incubation temp?

    I have a fan. The reason I said those are my two temp options is because they are the best temps I can dial in on between 88-90.

    Re: incubation temp?

    I go 88.5 to allow some room for heating up in case the room heats up a bit. Incubators can heat up but cooling them down is another story.
