He's not mine, I watched him he is coming and going from the woods behind me.

You do live in Florida! Reminds me of a dirty jobs episode where they were catching wild chickens in the City!

Chickens do not live in the wild here.

I've no clue what's up with the incubator. It's not keeping it's temp now. Urg!!!
The bulb must not be strong enough. Didn't have this issue with hatching quail less than 2 months ago. It'hanging in the 97s and low 98s now instead of 99-100.

You can buy kits with heaters to replace the bulb.

Congratulations everyone with new babies and babies hatching! Please remember to send me a PM with your total amount hatched so I can update the spreadsheet!

It's maybe possible that he's coming from the porperty that backs up to the other side of the woods and just coming over to visit my girls. LOL

Lockdown begins and patience ends.It’s a vicious cycle!I am sooo glad I don’t usually do this every year I would be a nervous wreck if I did.

My first chick just hatched. It barely pushed itself out of the egg before passing out. My chick that was the wrong way around made itself a pip hole, despite my safety hole, and is almost out.

I’ve tried selling on FB but it blocks posts selling livestock, just FYI!

Oh, ok. Thanks.
