Easter Chicks  Three more weeks!  Plenty of time to build a bator if you don't have one and find some eggs to hatch. Oh and lots of contests started already and more to come!

 

You don't want to miss out on this hatch!!!!!!!!!!

Hatching ducks for the first time. The hatching thread has been informative and entertaining, and we haven't even reached the set date yet.

If for some reason you can't hatch, come join in on the contests or the thread for some great information!

99.999% of girls would die if Justin Bieber appeared at their doorstep and asked for a date. If your that 0.0001% Who's wiping blood from your fist, put this in your siggy.

Now if I can get my new incubator fine-tuned fl.gif  I'll be in business! jumpy.gif

(it's a huge ice-chest build, and I suspect the one bulb isn't going to be enough to heat the whole thing.)

One might work. Remember to have a little space behind the Thermostat and put it as close to the light as you can get it.

 

Glad you're joining the hatch.

The thermostat is less than 6 inches from the bulb, and it now appears the one bulb will do the trick. The 'bator has been holding steady temps at 100 degrees F for nearly 18 hours, and I think I have the humidity dialed in too - had to change the size of the water container, though. Pretty sure it's ready to go!  celebrate.gifwee.gif
