Calling All New Brinsea Owners!!! February Hatch-a-long... PRIZES!!!

[debilorrah]

All my eggs are shipped eggs and so far I have 15 that are looking good. Better than I had hoped for.

I have a hatch set for February 4th...does this count or is it cheating?

WMR - Great - are their any rules? Who decides who gets the prize?

Last I heard, Brinsea was going to decide who won the prize.

Not sure yet, still waiting for another BYC member and Brinsea to coordinate and let us know.

I'll be setting my next batch on the 29th or 30th.

My Brinsea is ordered.... just waiting for shipment. Hopefully will arrive by the end of the week!

(eco 20 manual)
As soon as I know when the 'bator should arrive, I'll collect eggs accordingly. So, this should be my first hatch along ever!

If I understand this correctly.... all I need is a hygrometer (check) thermometer (check) power (bill paid, check) water (still runs!) and the eggs. Am I missing anything?? We live a ways from town so please save me the trauma of having to wait 3 days to begin! And, it seems some people allow the incubator to run two days to make sure everything is good, will that be necessary with the brand new brinsea?

and umm, as I said, this is my first hatch ever -- hand holding will be appreciated.

and, since I'm new here.... I live in Central California, have 9 hens, 1 rooster all of the finest hatchery quality imagined. ok, maybe not the finest, but they lay eggs and eat bugs, so we are all happy. There is also a dog, two cats - one of which is the best gopher assasian, two decorative horses, two young boys and my awesome husband. Pleased to be here and meet you all.

This is my second hatch. First hatch with a real bator. I have been watching my new Brinsea 40 & temp is fine according to my guage. The only adjustment thus far has been the humidity. The thermometer from Brinsea was broken . I hope everyone is receiving their bators from Brinsea & firing them up. I haven't heard from Brinsea yet but it's been the weekend. I will let WhiteMountainsRanch announce how the prize will be awarded seeing how she started this Hatch A Long. Here is a pic of my very first biddiey. I named her IDDY BIDDY.
