Thanks for the reply, David. I sure hope you are right, but a week or more of this heat with eggs being incubated will be brutal. I researched the http://www.sialis.org website & found great information on heat and one idea really appeals to me for consideration next year. It is a heat shield made with window shades you can readily purchase. It is a vinyl type material which is like actual screen wire, only made of heavy vinyl with same type of openings. I actually have this on my front picture window and it does cut down the sun’s rays & heat a lot. The only problem is that it probably wouldn’t be very substantial in the sun over time. Time will tell, but I have this on my bucket list for this winter. For now my box is heavy cedar wood, has good top ventilation and right now has Styrofoam insulation on the top, south & west sides, with good dead-air space. Don’t know what more I can do other than crossing my fingers, toes & eyes!!
