I have some eggs currently in the incubator on lockdown. I wanted to go ahead and start another batch. Never mind why LOL. My question is -
1. should I make a temporary homemade incubator out of a Styrofoam cooler?
2. Should I put either set of eggs under with my chick brooder at 100 degrees for a couple of days?
Of course when the first set hatches, I will put the second batch into the normal incubator. Since I dry hatch, I don’t think I can add both sets of the eggs together now during lockdown when there is water in there - because that would spoil the dry hatching of the 2nd set? I put a “?” Because I really am not sure.
For those of you who think that this is too complicated, just think of this is a puzzle to pass the time lol.
