Your Master Bator. LOL My dad used to take my brothers to run the lines in the river. My dad always had the easy job of driving the boat and he would have one of my brothers bait the lines. He would call them the Master Baiters.

That's where the vent sexing thing comes in to play. I have GOT to learn how to do that!

Ok...so I bought another bator But I have good reason....need a still air for hatching. Bought a Genesis for main incubator, and will unplug fan on the Hovabator I am already using and use it as a hatcher. I like to use my Lyon as a "hair dryer", lol.
