thats not good @Sally Sunshine
im not doin to well atm on the hatchs part, keep having heating issues but redesigning and gona be setting up another incubator, this time using a double freezer, bottem part will be incubationand the top will be hatching,
but this time im going to be letting...
@Sally Sunshine to clean fans, a dry unused paint brush and a hoover, bruah the fan blades S best as u can and use the hoover to suck the dust away
thata good that is! whens your next hatch?
mine is in a box, with 3 pipes comming away into the incubator, the fans push the air down the pipes as the air rises, i may invest in a fan to cycle the air around the heating box
thats unlucky @Sally Sunshine, touch wood, iv never had a egg explode, had a couple ones leak but otherwise ok,
we had a power outage yesterday for a few hours so iv added a extra pipe for warm air, n had to move a bulb appears it was touchin plastic n started to melt alittle:/:/:/
how often...
thank you @Sally Sunshine yes im using it as a hatcher aswell .. have nothing else they can hatch in lol but i think the next freezer or fridge to fail will be made into one, do you have any design ideas?
am excited as it appears to be working fine, your thread has helped immensly
