    Well. Started my 1st cabinet cooler bator hatch with 45, pulled 15 by day 14 which, like I said, I expected due to old eggs & some shipped. 26 made it to lockdown, 18 hatched. 1 of the 18 took about 48 hrs to hatch and didn't do well, had green slimy stuff leaking from something, culled it. 17...

    No. I haven't gotten that far into the check. Just was getting the thermostat set where it needs to be, or at least close, so that it'll be easier to just make small adjustments. I also haven't put in a bottom shelf yet. I am going to try & see if I can keep temps stabler without it 1st, because...

    Lol Thanks. We put the 100Watts in yesterday and its holding temp AMAZING!! I need to check my digitals against my mercury, so didn't have them all in. Just the mercury hanging a few feet from the shelf trying to get the thermostat somewhere near the correct setting, but it was doing great! YAY!!!

    By the time we got to the wiring everytime he'd "ask my opinion" on anything, I'd just say, " I don't care", cause it wasn't really going to matter anyway. LOL And, his way works just fine too.

    I just looked. We even have a water based high gloss interior/ exterior paint here. Would that be ok? If so, I guess it'd be worth a try at least, since its all free! I'll start with just 1 of them. If I don't like, I can always reuse the fans and thermostat I already purchased, and buy the...
