what temperature should a incubator for chicken eggs be at
In a forced air incubator (with a fan) the temperature should be 99-99.5*F. In a still air incubator the temperature should be slightly higher, 101-102*F measured at the top of the eggs. I use a thermometer and a hygrometer (which measures humidity) in my incubator.Hygrometers can be purchased quite cheaply at a cigar shop, Radio Shack and I believe even Walmart.n a still air incubator the temperature should be slightly higher, 101-102*F measured at the top of the eggs.
