Temperature spikes causes foot and leg problems. Sorry to hear about your quail and the mallard

Is it a home made 'bator? I think you should get it a new thermostat.

Nope it's a little giant bator. I've got two thermometers and a hygrometer. Thank you! -hugs-

 

[sumi]

You're welcome

See if you can get a new thermostat for it or build a new 'bator. Sally Sunshine built one from a cooler box and she says it works great. Coolerbator link's in her signature.

I have another home made bator too. I might study and put a dozen eggs in each and see how they turn out!

 

[Dzwina]

Mine is a homemade incubator. I did have a few problems with temperature spikes. Hope the legs turn Out alright.

As long is it wasn't to hot for too long you could get away with it

 

[Dzwina]

Never for long. One good thing about being 35 weeks pregnant and hatching eggs, I'm up every hour to pee lol

 

[sumi]

I remember that! And then it takes forever to get comfortable and back to sleep! Now you're going to get distracted by the chicks too. Get some sleep while you can! Once the baby's there...

 

[Dzwina]

Ok, I have nothing but one little pip. How long can this take?

It could take 30 hours or more from pip to finish. Be patient
