open up mouse and remove rolling contraption, go to sink (make sure drain plug is in place), hold the round black thing in your hands, squirt all with hand soap, rub, then rinse with water

dry with lintless towel (microfiber, old well worn diaper cloth, cheesecloth, whatever)

before reinstalling the round gadget, check inside the mouse for hair, lint, whatever, also check the little rolling cylinders, remove any excess skin sebum or dirt from them (q tip with alcohol works well)

done that so many times, now delighted with optical mouse instead

waiting for day 10 or so, then will attempt to candle the eggs under the two broodies -- will probably have to remove their cream colored eggs since I think it's been more than time for former rooster to fertilize those ... only the six green eggs are likely to develop

actually I told Mary to check them out but she's had some family disasters going on, not likely to remember stuff that isn't crucial to her personally

too many mosquitoes down there, for me to go unless wind is blowing up a storm since skeeters bite me in preference to anyone or anything else

Good Morning Folks,

Today is hatch day.  I am wondering how long you let your incubator run before you decide that an egg is not going to hatch?  I thought I'd ask you folks, before I go sorting through threads.
