MY PEEPERS IS BROODY AGAIN!!!!!!!!
yay....? Ultimately this means another brooder in the house..

LOL I put 2 blue eggs from EE under her. There are 4 roosters in there with my LF hens (all bantams)
Hopefully I can get something cool- some weirdo mutts, who may lay a colored egg!!!!!!

Must be a guy thing!! HAHAHA

I don't know, maybe?

I looked at the video you posted on the homemade incubator! That is great! But do you by chance know if it cost's less to make one rather than buy oneTony?

No, girl thing too, just don't get the time to sit in the recliner....LOL
My couch has one at each end- gosh I love that thing!!

I have been looking at those couches with the recliners! I want one!

however, don't let me get near my bed- once I lay down, it's all over, out like a light!!

I got to go cut grass so my DH will help me work on the coop this weekend!

I told him we only have two weeks before our oldest chicks could start laying eggs so we need to get it together ASAP!!!

My FSG says that there is no better motivation to get a coop built than having the chicks already there....LOL Sure worked with my ducks!!!

All depends. The thermostat and the cooler is the most expensive part really. Around $20 a piece. So look at Goodwill's or garage sales for coolers the right size. I figured it would cost around $80 to build one with all new parts and cooler. BUT, you will have a very nice bators.
