The Hethya 36 Egg Incubator is built to handle up to 36 eggs, and it's got some neat features like automatic egg turning and humidity monitoring.

Regarding the temperature control, which is super important for successful incubation, here's the scoop:

The manufacturer claims the incubator has a system that automatically maintains the right humidity levels by just refilling a water bottle. But from what we've found, this doesn't always work flawlessly. Some folks have noticed unexpected changes in humidity, sometimes going too high or too low, which means you might have to adjust things manually from time to time. One tip we came across was using a small medicine cup of water inside to help keep humidity steady.

When it comes to the temperature, there seem to be a few hiccups. The incubator has an alarm for temperature or humidity changes, but it might go off more often than expected. So, getting the exact temperature, especially if you’re using preset modes for different eggs, could need a bit more fiddling.

Despite these quirks, a lot of people still like the automatic features—like the egg turning, which can stop eggshells from sticking. But be aware, there have been some reports of the rollers occasionally not turning correctly.

Overall, the Hethya 36 seems to be a solid choice for smaller egg hatching projects at home. It offers helpful automation but might need a bit of manual oversight to get the best results.

It's a good idea to have a backup plan to monitor temperature and humidity just in case, which can help smooth out any issues and make your hatching experience a good one.
