The incubation temperature should be at a steady 100F for the entire 21 day wait for the chick. Once hatched, the brooder box should be maintained at 100F and you slowly reduce the temperature over several weeks until the chicks can stay comfortable at the environmental temperature.

You fail to confirm if the eggs you are incubating are chicken eggs but if they are, you may want to candle the eggs to ensure they are fertile.
