Good luck with the homemade incubator. I'm very interested on how it turns out. Looking forward to the pics. Wishing you the best of luck with you hatch.

I hope they're going to be OK.

I'll be looking forward to know the results of your candling.

I am keeping mine crossed too n thanks for your concern. Think I may have to have a quick peek at a couple tonight just t see if I can get any early indication x Patience is not a virtue that i possess

Hi all, just wondering how everyone is getting on so far? I can only apologise for not speaking to everyone as often as i should but what with work n the time difference it can be tricky at times. A big thanks to GeoKan for welcoming our new members in such a beautiful manner

. It is 19:52 here at the moment, it would be great to find out the time difference between us all

. Cant wait for hatch day n seeing all the pics of your fuzz butts, getting excited already

as I am not sure due to my crisis earlier whether or not I will have any this hatch but

.

Count me in also!! I have set 48 Call Duck Eggs and 30 Black East Indie eggs. 2nd time with calls first batch did not go so well 4/44

.
I candled yesterday and 12 of the calls and 3 indies were yolkers and 3 quiters. We had power outage for a few hours on day 2.

Hoping everyone's Hatch goes well!!

Happy Hatching
Jamie

Nice to have you on board Jamie. Will be keeping

for the rest of the eggs that you have in your bator and hope you have a fantiastic hatch rate this time round

 

[GeoKan]

Thanks for the compliment. No need to apologize Nactchlaly. I know, all to well, the demands work can place on us. I've just been lucky in the last couple of days that I've been off work.

I live almost in the middle of the United States. The time presently here is 14:19 hours. So, I think I'm 5 hours ahead of you.

Welcome Neverenuff! Sorry to hear about the power outage. I am dreading any storm in the next few weeks.

Living in a rural area is almost a guarantee power will fail.

Good luck with your hatch!

 

[natchlaly]

think you are 6 hours behind me GeoKan and hope you have the blankets at the ready just incase you have a power out to keep that bator toasty warm

 

[natchlaly]

Was gonna post this earlier but has taken me this long to figure out how t do it lol

 

[Lightfoote]

Thanks, GeoKan.

Still have to mount brackets inside for either shelves or drawers, drill a 4" dia. hole in the bottom of the center partition (for air circulation), insulate the right hand side of the cabinet, and place a fan, put 2 lower cabinet doors on the front, and frame 2 pieces of plexi on top for viewing...it's not a small box - it is 38"h x 38"w x 24"d...Maybe I have more ambition than common sense, but most of the materials were salvaged, and I have the power tools I need, so - what the heck, why not!? LOL! Wait until the peeps on this forum get a load of what I have in mind for a henhouse...ROTFLOL!
