Diary & Notes ~ Air Cell Detatched SHIPPED Chicken Eggs for incubation and hatching

[Sally Sunshine]

Since I have one cooler hatching, one double stacked and a TON of eggs to begin incubation tomorrow I had to get the styros spot on again....did I mention how much I HATE STYRO BATORS??
and I pray this next storm does NOT take our electric!

The styros have now entered into the living space once again

I swore they wouldnt move out of the washroom area but I have no choice! Adding (I am not sure we will ever get that counter top finished with bators on it) ha ha ha




Washroom area....

At what age can I take chick's out to the coop? They're stinking my garage and I don't want my DH to get upset and close me down. Lol

I dont know your weather, we took our month olds out but we have an enclosed area with a heat lamp at one end for them, heat lamp ziptied so it cant be hit and knocked and start a fire though!
The dust gets crazy after three weeks.

adding and I also have that infant video camera set up so I can check the heat lamp periodically to make sure its on and not blown as there is no back up out there.

Quote: I need a big incubator and then separate hatchers as this is getting too nuts now.... I am watching CL for one of those tall soda cooler thingers to convert.

I made a coop with wooden boxes and have heat lamp. Temperature would be at 50 at night.
