The air intake and exhaust holes are in the back between the real back and the false back where the air flows down to the bottom of the incubator. It is getting good fresh air flow. As I said in the first post I have a Little Giant Automatic Egg Turner that sits on the rails above the hatching tray and they are turned automatically. Fan is right behing the water pan and the heating element is right behind that then the air goes down behind a false back out the bottom up through the hatching tray then through the eggs on the egg turner up to the top shelf then over the water pan and back to the fan. Like I said I got good hatches out of my chicken eggs. 24 out of 28 and 5 out of 6 in the two hatches I have done in it. Just having issues with the quail I tried to hatch.
SteveThanks for all the info it confirms what I thought about temps and times for the eggs are. My first two purchases were from different people, but I have a bad feeling that the outside temps we were having when the eggs were shipped could have been my problem. I did just make another purchase of eggs from a different person so I will see how this goes. I have 120 more eggs on the way so my fingers are crossed. ThanksTom
