    Angel Wing

    Nice! I am happy it worked out for you. Mine keeps working at the wrapping until he eventually gets it off . He is a couple of weeks older now and I am so aggravated with it so much so that I don't know if I should even bother! If I do, I may have to do the body wrap b/c wrapping just the...

    HELP - one chick has hatched and other only pipped

    No, You do not have to be sorry!! I loved reading all the information. It gave me some things to think about and watch for. This is my first go round with an incubator and I really didn't do a lot of research before I got started. It is a wonderful and informative link that I have gone to...

    Angel Wing

    I seen a thread on here before about this issue but, noticed that it is from 2010. I thought I would refresh the thread and see if I can get some clarity on this issue.
