How bigs your beer fridge ?

You don't need one its just the eggs on and near the bottom will take extra days to hatch as it will be cooler
Near the bottom
Adding fans will supply an even heat through out the incubator
And eggs should take the same amount of time
Like you say small I doubt the temp from bottom to top will be that much

Adding water bottled to the incubator will act like a buffer to get temps up quicker
When opening the doors

Anymore questions I'd be glad to help if I can :)

I just ordered my vermiculite and egg crate about 10 minutes ago :)

I done a thread here

Nope :( still here and feeding like demons lol

You should be fine without fans
and as you say your only going to use the middle shelf
So just set the pulse up to temp in the middle tub :)

If you ever use the top shelf which I'm sure you will do ;)
Just test it to see what temps your getting on the top and middle ;!
