I ordered the 96 egg bator off ebay. I didn't know about the plastic BUT the room I have the bators in now stays at 99 with the heater in it. I know............I went over the edge............and I get requests for EE's more than any other bird so I ordered 13 eggs to hatch in hopes of getting a roo for Spring......I only have two EEs and both are excellent layers.

I'm ok as long as they keep selling.........if I disappear that means sweet hubs looked out and saw a few hundred chickens from lack of sales............

This is really cool though, feeds my habit and keeps me busy. I now have orders for fuzzy butts that haven't hatched yet...............all are dry incubated........but it still stays 35-45%..Out of 3 hygrometers my thoughts are it is staying at 35% fairly steady. I did the salt test on them and all have markings of how off they truly are. I guess I'm betting and taking a chance at the various readings but you would think with 3 tested the middle is fairly close

so with dry incubation you keep the eggs at a steady 35% what about at lock down? i am very curious about this meythod....i am working with a little giant, fan no turner.

what is the salt test?

Ok, I told Sally I was culling this egg tonight, but I still keep waffeling about it! I just don't want to kill a little one.
It's day 14. These are all pictures of the same egg. It is the only one that wasn't 100% clear.
What do you guys think?
Photo quality is poor. Sorry
