Really the wine cooler should be fine as is. As far as temps, some of the digital sensors and circuitry sample like every three seconds or something, so that should be good enough. Consistent temps in the wine cooler will depend on consistent temp outside the wine cooler. Chris was right about adding thermal mass, like a bottle of water. A big thing is don’t open the door all the time fussing over them. Set it up way in advance and work the bugs out before you add eggs. They would probably hatch in a brown paper bag under your bed. Don’t over-think it.
