I haven't used mine in a long while. I forgot how to orient the eggs on the turning tray and of course can't find the manual. Is it pointy end toward the middle or toward the outside?

Ughhh!!! I found the incubator unplugged today. I think it has been accidently unplugged for about 24 hours. I know when I checked it last and when a mistake could have been made by DS. Eggs were cold. What do ya think?

I'd rather buy eggs right here in Texas if possible. Anybody got Barnevelder eggs for sale?

Disclaimer-I'm not telling anyone what to feed, this was an accident. Someone gave me 200lbs of sweet potatoes too ugly to sell for people. Yes, I told them I would be feeding them to my chickens and goats etc. Almost immediately my usual bright yolks became so orange they look dyed!! I can't...

As a normal part of my brooder program, I have put a little acv in the water. After reading some scientific sounding stuff that indicate I was wasting my time, I stopped and gave chicks plain old water. Almost immediately I had problems with stuck poop on their hineys. Scared me as the chicks...

I know it turns slowly but I think mine went out. Its really hard to tell!

Ok Just wondering if anyone knows. My son and I discussed dressing out extra bantam roos like he does his quail he hunts. I understand many think they are only decorative but if this would work, it would not be such a waste of birds we are already feeding.

I have officially slipped off the edge of sanity. I have 2 incubators I like to use. I have the Brinsea Mini (7 eggs) and the brinsea that holds about 20 eggs. Well I ordered eggs from cowgirl 75446 and mamawolf544. (I highly recommend both sellers). Then my son asked if I would set some of his...

We got 3 but they look the same. Our feed store orders from ideal if that helps. What kind do you guys think they are?

Need eggs in Texas. I know somebody out there has them. My son lost his in a nightmarish predator attack. He is 15 and 6'3" and loves his "bitty chickens". It would be cute even if I wasn't his mom. He has been heart broken but is ready to raise some more.

This is driving me ca-razy!!!! haven't incubated in 2 years (long story) Pulled it all out and cleaned and replaced tubing. Plugged up for test run and worked great. Unplugged for 4 days waiting on eggs. NOW its not pumping water!!!! motor is working tubing is clear-I blew thru it to check...

is there a active code for us BYC'ers to get a discount with Brinsea right now?

I have bought eggs from BYC members and am often tempted by eggs on Ebay. So far I have resisted. I have some sort of block in my mind that BYCers probably hold each other more accountable than the big scary world of ebay. What have your experiences been?

My brinsia arrived today yipee. I went with all the bells and whistles. Got the octogon 20 advance with humidity pump. I got a bonus at work and needed other things but....... you chicken addicts understand. I was disappointed in how long it took me to put it all together. I am a single mom who...

She is about 10 wks-ok I lost count We got her at a local feed store from a mixed straight run bantam box from Ideal Hatchery What is she? She was the tiniest one in the box and the only one with her coloring.

This was a suggestion from another BYCer but I don't remember who. We will be introducing young chickens to our flock of older chickens this week. At the end of the summer we will be rehoming or tamale making with several of our older hens. Since several of our chickens tend to look alike at...

I went to the feed store to get more chick starter and found a baby easter chick (teal blue) on its side in the chick brooder. Of course they gave it to me. You can stand him up ok but he rocks back with his feet in front of him on his bottom and then falls to the left. I held him to some water...

I am fortunate enough that I can sell all the eggs I can get. I have people that want to pay me in advance for eggs that are not even laid yet!! About once a week or so I find a smushed egg in a nesting box. Wanna ask "Who did this? Did you know this egg was sold?!!???!" Just minor irritations...

I picked this bantam baby up at the feed store. He is from Ideal Hatchery and came out of a box that was mixed bantams straight run. This was the only one in the box that looked like this. What do you think she/he is as Now a llittle prayer that I did this pic thing right.... PS. Extras in...

Wanted to share my experience as there have been lots of questions lately. I bought 3 BO's and 2 Production Reds 10 days ago. My mom brought us 5 EE babies yesterday. With much trepidation I put them all in the brooder together. They are exactly 11 days apart on hatch dates. My first five...
