I think it is better to know this then to make customers mad that buy pure eggs and find mutts instead.

I do love my mutts, but I did pay a premium for SG Dorking eggs. If I wanted EEs I could go pick them up at the Feed Store.

I know it's a still air incubator but this is $75 and comes with a turner anddd a fan...deal or no deal?

No deal, its the Little Giant. Styrofoam is hard to clean, hard to keep steady temps, and I guess that one is more temperamental than the Hova Bator (who is bad enough). Now.. if you had the money - get the Sportsman... only offer him 300...

I was reading on the same thread.. and thought that was very interesting. The speaker was at a Backyard Poultry meet up with Dr. Bramwell.. BYCers dray and Caj1985 were there. dray also said that HallFamily (Jim) will probably be posting a video of the seminar on the Arkansas thread when he gets it finished.

According to Caj1985 "Basically the way he stated it works is the semen is stored in tubes and the last one to mate is the sperm that gets used. As long as the new rooster continues to mate the hen the old will never get added from the tubes to the egg. The stuff on the bottom gets packed in and finally absorbed by the hen. It was really interesting to listen to him. Therefore as long as your rooster continues to do his job , the sperm from the old one will just get packed to the bottom and never get added to the egg."

Very informative! I went over to the Arkansas thread and as of three days ago HallFamily is working on putting it up to be available for people to view online. It is currently in two parts and he is working on the title page/credits. https://www.backyardchickens.com/t/37675/arkansas-folks-speak-up/6040#post_10270746

I don't have the money. Not even for the $75 CL cheapo one but I was going to squeezeeeee it out if it were a good deal. Jeff is so kindly hatching some of my EE and bantam BLRW eggs for me. He is SO nice! I am hoping for a broody in the meantime but I want some bantam BLRW before something happens to either one in my pair.
