post #6611 of 11360

Okay I cleaned out DS3 and DS10 closet and came up with at least two bags of clothes for the Goodwill.  And I got dinner started and a load of laundry going.  Can I come and read and drink my cup of coffee for a while now?

Here is my obsessive incubation question for you experts:

 

The kids will be on spring break and the school will be closed from day 11 to day 19. The director has agreed to meet me at the school a few times to let me in so that I can add water and check on the eggs (not that there's much checking I can do). I'm contemplating taking the eggs home on day 10, and then bringing them back on day 19 so that way I don't have to inconvenience both the director and I by going in multiple times while the school is closed (I figure I'll need to add water every 3 days or so- that's how often the one little well goes dry). I have a brinsea mini advance, and it always goes right up to temp within 15 minutes. Drive is 15 minutes, so it wouldn't be a huge interruption if I did take them home. Should I leave them at the school for spring break, or take them home?

 

I feel that I do need to add water occasionally because the ambient humidity around here is only 20% or so, and if I keep one well of water in the incubator, that keeps the humidity in there around 30-35%.

The incubator can - it was a power outage problem.  The eggs are all lost. My children are just devastated.
