    Harris Farms Nurture Right 360 Incubator is AMAZING!

    Absolutely! Theres even a gal on Etsy that sells a 3D printed quail tray . It comes in 3 pieces with instructions and clips to hold while glue dries. I didn’t glue, just used the clips.

    I decided to give it another go. I realized the bad luck trifecta of shipped eggs/damaged air cells, the 7 day power outage and my own inexperience/missteps PROBABLY wouldn’t repeat itself, but I waited to share the progress JUST in case of another crushing failure. So. I have babies hatching...

    Thank you. Yes it was a relief to get power back. We had just gone to town to get gas/perishable food/propane/water.....it came on a couple hours later. Murphy’s law of course.

    Well I have bad news and good news. None of the eggs hatched. We had snow then freezing rain here which left us without power for a week, starting on day 15. And temperatures dropped into the 20-30’s each night. We alternately ran a generator and/or the inverter in our semi truck with...

    Thank you for the heads up on the gunk collector (structural ) baffles, I think I will do exactly what you proposed with paper towels or maybe something like paper medical tape. I didn’t notice any major junk there from my quail hatch, but maybe they weren’t as messy. Hows the chick?

    Good luck :fl Lol, I’ve got day old chicks coming the day after mine hatch too. 8 of them (BA roosters) plus the shipping are gratis from the hatchery that gave me all pullets last year by mistake. They asked me to fill out the box of 25 with something else which they gave me for wholesale...

    The new 360 I picked up today fired right up and seemed to stabilize at 99.5 and about 40% humidity within a few hours. I had to choose between letting it run for 24 hours or getting the egg turner going. I didn’t see any improvement in the eggs with detached air sacks so I chose to get them...

    I am having trouble getting and keeping the temperature and humidity up in one of my 360’s. I was having trouble with it during the quail hatch so I purchased a second one, which works great btw, thinking I would return the first one. Then I decided the biggest problem was probably operator...

    I marked 4 compass points on the tray itself today starting at 0, with marks at 90, 180, and 270 with a sharpie so I could verify the rotation of the tray. I made the mistake while incubating quail, my first hatch, of putting the shelf liner in from the start. It was too thick (I have a thinner...

    I just set 38 shipped from Florida Bresse eggs (Scarola’s lines) tonight (Wed.). Hoping for 50% success. I weighed them all and marked them as best I could. We’ll see what develops 😘. I did buy some govees so I’ll try to get those in tomorrow.
