Turn dimmer switch until the light bulb keeps a 99.5
Drill 8 holes About 1/4" Big in the Ice chest for air (4 upper 4 lower)
put cup water for Humidity.To Reach 60%/65%
Get the right temperature/humidity use a thermometer with humidity gauge.
30 chickens eggs or 45 bantams eggs remember you have turn eggs 3 times a day.
You can build it for $20.00 dollars
Homemade cabinet incubator
4' H 4' W 2' D = 2 peice plywood 4'/8' 1/2"
Put 5 Shelves 44"L /12"W inside to inside. You will need around 50' 1"/1" board
6" apart with first one about 6" off floor
Hand full wood screws 1 1/4" long
Three trays per shelve with about 2" gap in between them for air pass through.
It holds 15
Quail Egg Trays 1950 eggs
Universal Egg Trays 720 eggs = Bantam, Pheasant, to medium Chicken
Extra Large Egg Trays 540 eggs = Turkey, Duck
Temperature Setpoint Range: -30° to 220°F you can use it for heat or cool.
This case you want it for heat.set it at 100°F low 99°F high 101°F
Differential range: 1° to 30°F When set on 1°Differential range = 99°F that mean low 98°F high 100°F
Input Voltage: Work off 120VAC, for this setup
Sensor: Thermistor, 2" long x 1/4"dia with 8' cable (included)
Control Ambient Temperatures
Wire coil
Fan/Heater/Light all in one
Single pole switch for light.
Single pole switch for fan.
Using this setup you will need dimmer switch going to heater coil.so when the Digital Thermostats
turn off the heat .It stays at 100°F. If not heat will rise some even when power off to it, because it to hot.
This way you can match the heat coil with the Thermostats.
(Humidity pan) = pan water 12"W/14"L

So you know what the humidity in the incubator is.
If 6"/6" pan give you a 50% humidity and need more humidity use a 8"/ 8" pan and so on.
