Missprissy...I noticed you told her that you don't mess with them at all until day 4...but do you turn them? I thought you had to turn them the entire time until day 25?

I have started using your advise for candling...I have only touched them once since you've told me ...for pictures....(well for candling...I have to touch to turn) but every other time I bring the flashlight to the box and candle like you do it....I appreciate all the help you offer because who knows if I would have even made it this far if I had touched them....

My mom might come to visit and I've told her to not touch them while she is here...'cause she was like "I can hold them to weigh them" and I was like "no...you can't touch them at all except to turn..."

People aroudn here think that i am crazy because I say I have to wash my hands and I can't touch them to candle...they're all like thinking its as easy as chickens (don't hold me to that sttatement because I've only hatched chickens when I was 14 and it was really my mom that did it,,,,,,just I've heard chickens are less finicky about incubation)

I have an auto turner in the dickey. It turns them for me. I rarely touch them.
