With the thermostat set at 96, the incubator hit 87.6 and stayed in that general area. I raised the thermostat one more degree, so hopefully it will hit 88 and stay there without me raising it anymore.

I do not have the press and seal plastic wrap. I can take pictures of my egg tub though and you can tell me if it would be ok without it.

I also just realized that not a single room in this house can be dark enough for candling. (skylights and windows in pretty much every room).

Once I get the eggs in the incubator, how often should I open the egg tub for air circulation?
