The popular Mini Advance incubator has been improved to include a room temperature alarm in addition to the existing incubator temperature alarm and the convenience of an external water top-up.
The Mini II Advance is still menu driven and extremely easy to use: just program the length of incubation for your specie and the micro-controller holds the correct temperature, turning and length of incubation with no further input. The display counts down each day to tell you when eggs are due to hatch and turning will stop automatically 2 days prior to hatching. All you need do is top up periodically with water. Ideal for learners, hobbyists and teachers wanting to hatch eggs in the classroom.
Although small the Mini II Advance offers advanced features which make it attractive to any breeder:
7 egg capacity (12 small eggs with optional insert)
Temperature factory preset at 99.5 F (37.5°C) but fully adjustable
High and low temperature alarms including the new room temperature alarm
Periodic Egg Cooling feature
Fan assisted air circulation
Humidity provided by water trays with new convenient external water top-up; not suitable for automatic humidity control.
Automatic egg turning - turning interval and turning angle programmable
Count down to hatch day with autoturn stop
Clear dome for excellent visibility
Biomaster™ anti-microbial plastic construction - robust and easy to clean
For automatic humidity control see the Mini II EX.
Maximum egg capacities (approximate):
Quail 12
Pheasant 12
Hen 7
Duck 7

I know this won’t qualify as an “entry” because it’s past the deadline. I was in the middle of posting it yesterday and didn’t realize until this morning that I didn’t press the “post reply” button to actually make it post. But I really just wanted to go ahead and share this pic (even though it’s too late) with the community as my 12 year old daughter took this and was expecting it to be posted.

Pacific Standard Time is 3 hours behind the time in New York when New York is on standard time, and 4 hours behind the time in New York when New York is on daylight saving time.
What you posted is correct IF the Pacific location does NOT go on DST. If they do, then they would stay 3 hours behind NY. Your example specifically states it is comparing Pacific standard time. In other words, if both are on standard time, or both are on DST, then it is three hours. If only the Eastern location goes on DST and the Pacific one doesn’t, then it is 4 hours.
This contest is now closed. Thank you everyone for all the great entries. It will take awhile for them all to be judged so your patience is appreciated. Winners will be announced ASAP. Good luck everyone.
