If you jinx me I'm going to tell Santa!

I am Santa, dear.

Can I see a pic of their shells after they hatch?

The inside... with the hatch gunk.

I'll show you them live tonight when it gets dark.
Yes! That way you can see how jacked up the air cell is too.

I've been keeping it at a steady 18 - 22%

Do not start making me worry.

When I did them I was told that they specifically need higher humidity. Usually I keep my incubators at 30%, but was told for buttons that 45% is better. So I did that, and had a really good hatch.

But if you're successful with a lower humidity, then that's fine too, lol.

Bet I'd win the jacked-up-air-cell context. I have a duck egg with a completely free-floating air cell right now.

I am not a fan of humidity or added heat. I like to push the limits.

I am bad. Very very bad.

You get away with some pretty crazy things, but I'm still slightly shocked that 18% humidity hasn't desiccated them.

Bee your website is looking really nice.
Are you going to be adding pictures?

Thanks. I'm still trying to figure out how to get the contact section to work. Once I get the functionality sorted I plan to add some links to other pages. One for articles, one for pictures, one for products, etc. It's a very basic site right now.
