A picture is worth a thousand words. Here's a picture of an actual micro-controller based egg incubator circuit.

Your job is to figure out where to find the schematic.

It's really easy to do. Hint: use a search engine:

lynlynch, I hope you will not think me daft...

The blue tag wire in the right margin of your image: Does that go to #17 on the display, or does that go to the chicken? I cannot quite figger it out... If to the chicken, just where does it go?

Well, grasshopper, in order to take a chicken's temperature you put the probe up the vent. In order to give the chicken temperature (incubate) you put it in the same place.

How did we ever incubate eggs without a microcontroller or a chicken.....

Seems I built a few of these with in the past using a few farm implements purchased at the feed store. It wasn't elaborate but it worked just fine.

Is the microcontroller going to turn the eggs every 6 hours?
