I am confused with the range of temperature I've been seeing for incubating bobwhite eggs in a still air incubator: 99.5- 103. What is the ideal temp? I'd like to have quail eggs in bator with turkey eggs.
I have a Little Giant with no fan.
Thanks,
Val

101.5 in a still air 99.5 in a forced air

You may do well to follow the directions that came with your incubator (if it was new) at least for the first few hatches. Incubators come in different designs which may require slightly different settings. The location of your incubator and the environment around the machine may need to be considered in achieving optimal temp. and humdity settings.
