buttons due today

[Akane]

They'll probably wait until 4am

Everyone will fall asleep by then.

The one next to the thermometer has a pip and one off screen.


Darn it. The stupid thing got bumped again. That is a very bad location for the incubator. Last hatch I used someone else's laptop so I could leave it where it was. This time I tried to put it on the coffee table next to the incubator so the camera would reach and if the dogs and cats aren't tripping over the cord I'm hitting it with my computer chair. Remember to get longer cord before next hatch.

oh no worries i am a night owl..lol

but they always start hatching when no one is looking lol

I can actually see them right now. When the light is off, it's hard to see! Lol. This is too much, I'm never going to survive hatching my own out!

If I leave the light on the buttons flip out and it reflects off the window which you can see now that I repositioned the camera. If there were more eggs they'd be blocked by the reflection.

I pointed a lamp at it so I can leave the room light off.

when you moved the light away from the bator window it was fine

because when it's on the window it's a bright reflection to it.

like not moved away to far from the window but like half way.

the way you have it now is fine though... is that a pip?

 

[Bettacreek]

Looks alright now, but if the buttons get scared, then by all means, their needs come first, lol. I think it's great that you're putting up with us and sharing the video.

I have the previous button hatch right at "boink stage" when they are most likely to fly into the top of their brooders. If I brighten the room too much then they start spooking at every little thing and bouncing around their pen. I keep lights over them during the day to avoid that but now only their red heat lamps are on. I'll have to go back to the led flashlights on the incubator eventually if these eggs don't decide to get moving soon.
