How do I get it to only heat up to 90 degrees?! I left it alone overnight, after twisting the little "adjustor screw" in the "decrease" direction as far as I could (easier to adjust the temperature up than down, right?), but when I woke up this morning it was at 105 degrees!

So, I tried twisting the screw the other way, thinking maybe that'd help...nope, temperature went right back up! (I left the top off for a while so that the temperature would go down to about 85 degrees)



Could I have put it together wrong? Am I not waiting long enough for things to stabilize? The instructions for chickens said wait half a day; it's been close to 24 hours and I can't figure this thing out!



The eggs are still in with the mother and the one on top that I can see has a long, shallow indent in it, is that normal?



My female just HAD to pick the week my brain would be the most fried!
