    Brinsea Tips Needed

    The humidity pump is a joke. I got the uber expensive all digital one with the pump and I used it a handful of times before disconnecting it and going to manual humidity. The good thing is you can fill one of the wells in the bottom and it keeps humidity around 50-55%. If you fill both of the...

    Forgot to turn the turner back on..

    December 5th, turned the turner off to pull a batch of eggs out of the Sportsman to put in the hatcher. December 7th, went to turn the turner off again to pull another batch of eggs - it was still off.. So it's been off for 2 days. Are the remaining eggs doomed?? I have about 100 eggs in...

    Birchen Marans Thread

    My birchen boy at around 11mths old now.. With one of his girls - who is very nosey and wouldn't let me take pictures. I have an order pending with Greenfire Farms. Supposedly this Monday they are going to invoice me so I can get a few of their good eggs. :) They are soooo expensive though.

    Brinsea Mini Advance Incubator

    I had some shipped eggs off ebay recently. They sent me 5 eggs. 4 hatched. One had a blood ring so I don't blame the incubator. I had 3 other eggs in there with it that were my fresh eggs and they hatched as well. I LOVE this little incubator. LOVE IT!

    I'm not too concerned with the price on them as long as I don't have to feed them anymore. :) Would $5-$7 be fair?
