Another thing is that the built-in thermometer and hygrometer in the styrofoam incubators are very often way off. Always double-check the actual temperature to see how off the built in thermometer is off so you can adjust. You can tell a lot by the air cell size and when chicks hatch.
My personal opinion is that when you compare the cost of a used cabinet vs. a new styrofoam incubator with fan and turner the price difference isn’t gigantic yet the used cabinet will last forever and give you much better hatches and hold 6X as many eggs. If you sell baby chicks the used Cabinet will quickly pay for itself.
Excellent video. lot to learns
