Yeah....I know....I think they are good for 10yrs???....I had one a few yrs ago when I cut a finger....maybe after a few days I'll be good....for now I'll hobble around. ha
:I was able to put up a little more siding this evening.....also managed to step on a nail...sucker went all the way thru my shoe and into my foot. Boy it hurts! If i thought it would make it feel better i'd cry....lol

With my first 2 hatchings (if you want to call it that) I only had the dry bulb thermometer.....it's the one that slides in the side of the bator that looks like a meat thermometer. Anyway...since froday I have bought 3 more Digital thermometers....and it appears as the bulb thermometer has been...
