Realistically more eggs that ship before june aren't going to work sigh. Especially with the insane winter storm for 7+days

When does that sale end? I need more deciding time

I think it said it’s for the rest of the week. So I would assume that means until probably Saturday or Sunday.

After days of shorts, I was almost in tears when it began snowing. I still have not put away the snow shovels or winter gear.

Shorts are winter gear. I am confused.

Wear pants in the summer to keep the mosquitoes & snakes off the legs.

So, if the average night time temperature is in the 70's, do I need a heat lamp in the brooder? I'm thinking not.

Thanks! May have to do that. Although idk if I can. Although I guess they don’t have to be watched 24/7 lol

Yes they do.
Especially if you have not ever used your bator missy.

Go set some eggs now.
Let it run for a few day do you can learn it.

Heck no...I won't be using one this time unless someone starts looking like they might die on me.

How am I supposed to work if that’s true? although you do have a point! I did try running it the full time a while ago, like last month, but haven’t since. I should probably run it again. I wanna put the hygrometers in. Haven’t tested those in it yet. And can’t seem to get the temp exact.

I can’t set any eggs though!! They’re not fertile!! Lol no rooster!!

Corid

I'm wondering if they could possibly have coccidiosis.

Have you measured under your heat lamp?

I want to to put your hen's eggs in on purpose.

You gotta fine tune the bator before you get real eggs.

 

[Kiki]

And...you don't work the first few days.
You can't leave the bators side.
And you only get 30 minute naps. No real sleeping allowed.


This only applies with real eggs though.
If you know your bator and trust it you are allowed to work and sleep.
