LOL My daughter would love to do that. Her favorite person is herself in the mirror. We signed her up for Karate - she spend so much time looking at the mirrors, she couldn't keep up!

I thought this was interesting:


Interesting because I think my RCOM might have similar issues. In the past, all eggs in the 4 corners have died. Haven't used it enough to know if it's a real problem of not, but it will be interesting to see if it happens again.

Kathy you dont rotate your eggs? That is not good in any incubator, you should always rotate them, i even do it in my cabinets at least during candle times.

How often do you candle. I have an egg Turner and my heat and humidity are holding so there has been no need to open it up.

I only candle on days that end in Y.

I have home made styrofoam with fan. Keep at least 3 thermometers in there all the time, and even with my tin foil baffles, which were the result of hours spent assessing temp fluctuation related to location... I still move the eggs around in the bator, so that each egg rotates through warm/cool spots. So far, with all of this babysitting, I'm getting good hatches.

Just joining this thread - We got an incubator for Christmas and have our first eggs 'cooking'. I look forward to learning from this group.
