Incubation Temps

[nevohraalnavnoj]

Can someone temp gun some of the items in their incubator? And let me know how surface temps match up with air temps?

I have my air temp at 89 (Helix says 89, backup Johnson actually says 90), but surface temps are 87-88.....any thoughts?

102 flexwatt temps
91 waterbottle temps
89 air
85.5 inside the egg tub.

is one more over the heat than the other? Also, is one more shallow than the other? ( and therefore less substrate is inside?)

i put the colder one closer to the heat tape, and yes the colder one is much smaller and way less substrate. i think im just gonna use the large ones no matter how big the clutch is.

thats why. Smaller container, less substrate, means its going to be warmer overall.

91F with probe outside the egg box. Perfect.

I bet they cook pretty quick at this temp. How many days on average does it take for your clutches to hatch?

I set my incubator to 89F with the probe outside of the box, and they normally hatch between 55 and 57 days.

the smaller one is the cold one.

Yeah I set mine at 89F with the probe in the tub. They are all out by day 57.
