So the temperature seems to be leveling off now. Sometimes I have to put tape over a hole I've cut into the sides of the incubator. To maintain the temperature at around 100 degrees, I had to cut some holes into the side, and then if I want to make the incubator temperature higher I cover them with tape. So that's what my dad and I have been doing lately, checking up on them and such. When I'm not home my dad peeks in every so often to make sure everything is going alright.
I have to turn the eggs over 3 times a day, I do this at 8 am, 3 pm, and at night around 9.
Pretty soon I'll have to build the structure where they will be in when they are chicks, and a few weeks after they are hatched I'll be able to move them outside to the coop, which I also have to build.
