I guess you'll never know for sure but adjusting the temp for your next clutches can be a starting point to rule that out.

    I actually agree with you, it just doesn’t make sense that nobody has seen this before. The problem is, I can’t find anything else to blame. It will be interesting to see if the 3rd clutch has the same issue. If it does then there is no doubt something is very wrong with this incubator setup. I would like to test another clutch with the new adjusted temps before I scrap this incubator but I’m not sure when my next clutch will come and I’d hate to risk multiple clutches if I have to wait until next season. I guess for now I need to just wait and see how this last clutch turns out.
