Chicken hawk can you get screws with nuts longer than the thickness of your fan and lid combined like at least 1 inch longer?

Can I settle in here with you guys for a while?

I told my hubs I was "just going to do a test hatch" for the NYD HAL. That was two hatches ago and 24 chicks later

I've still got 4 more batches of eggs to hatch (2 under broodies and 2 in the incubator).
In my defense, I did some serious flock reduction in the fall to cut the winter feed bill and so I can focus on one project and not many. Obviously my test hatch had good results, fertility has been great and the girls are laying well, so......I'm just over here collecting and marking eggs, popping them under hens or in the incubator

I'm hatching Silkies and Sizzles

Not sure how settling it will be, but welcome just the same

I went down to he coop. And I find my two Roos who have lived in harmony together for a year dueling it out! The older one wasn't cut up as bad, but the younger one was pretty bad. Cleaned there wounds applied vertrycin they seem fine except for bruising! These guys are driving me crazy!

Will a hen lay on just one egg or do they wait till they have a bunch eggs before they lay on them

Sheetrock, exterior deck, or wood screws will work. Start pilfering the junk drawer.

Ok besides screws with or without nuts depending on type you'll need spacers on each screw that can be an even number of washers hard tubing or stay anything to keep in between the fan and lid you want a space no smaller than 1/2 inch and probably no larger than an inch. If you can't find screws you could thread a old wire hanger through instead.
