➡ Quail Hatch Along🥚

How many calibrated thermometers do you have in your bator and is your humidity gauge been salt tested?

Just 1 hydrometer. I didn't do a salt test. But I did put it against another 6 hydrometers..

Welcome!
Where did your eggs come from?

I bought them from a seller on Amazon. In retrospect it is both overpriced and badly packaged...compared to the ones I later saw on eBay...

One thing that stands out to me is that many of the eggs had hairline cracks. That is enough to kill a chick, and you should discard any that have cracks. If these are coturnix eggs, I get the best results at 30% humidity until pipping, when I raise it up to 40-50%.

Thanks for the tip! And yes that was a somewhat regrettable purchase. From what I saw, eBay had a lot more options, better shipment protection, and more reviews than the seller I purchased from on Amazon. I am happy that I got 3 though.

1986?!? I thought this one was older. Something about free milk and a cow. Did you see the chicken? They had a chicken in the video.

First time I saw the video. No seat belts AND standing up in the bed of a moving pick up truck. Think some mothers would be having a cow right now??? Ah, fond memories of childhood. That and riding in the back windshield laying down. The coveted spot.

I remember when there was no such thing as a seat belt.

Yep, I owned few of those vehicles.

No seat belts!?

Now it’s the total opposite and the car yells at you if you don’t put it on.

My new one doesn’t shut up. The old one did after a few minutes. This one won’t until you put it on no matter how long it takes. And it turns your music way down too until you do it. Seriously annoying. I usually do always put it on but I’ve tested it before to see.

Don't you have to wear it in MA. NH is the only state I've been in that doesn't require it and most accidents are fatal Same as wear a helmet on a motorcycle, NH doesn't require it. I'm glad I moved out of that state. You literally Live Free and Die when you live there...

Seat belts didn't become standard equipment until legislation was passed in 1972. And back then they were only lap seat belts.

In NH you can still ride in the back of a truck. I've done it numerous times, it's always fun on really bumpy roads

I'd rather wear one. I've been in some serious accidents and if I followed NH laws where over 18 you don't have to wear one... I wouldn't be here. I've also been in 55+ mph accidents and they hurt really bad.
