Thanks for the warm welcome. I really appreciate it. I have already posted a couple questions and am grateful for the wisdom that is here. So glad to be a part of this community of chicken loving folks. Any support with my questions would be great. Its my first time incubating and I've already had some learning experiences, including having to put a chicks intestines back in. Whew.
