I just set up Chads incubator this morning, to warm it up... went down to look I think 121 degrees is warm enough

Cochins reminded me of something I read the other day. Some interesting advice for treating certain foot and leg issues here.

I'm really not sure. There isn't any swelling and there aren't any blisters, but they are slightly dis-colored and they are obviously causing him discomfort. It's been 4 days. I guess we'll just have to wait and see.

Everyone else is fine. For some reason he decided to stand in his water dish on a frigid day. What was he thinking?

Just a thought, but I think you should turn it down a bit.

What kind of incubator is it?

ya think! good thing we ALL KNOW to run it a few days before we add eggs! lol My kids musta been at it while it was on the counter with their board games lol. Now its at 89 ha ha ha

Why do I have a feeling I need a few days of getting back into the cheap styro phase again!!! DID I EVER MENTION I LOVE THE COOLERBATORS WITH less than .1 degree variance!! WELL I DO!!! I can have those up and to the perfect temp in less than an hour (empty)

Oh well I guess the eggies will wait another day! maybe this is a sign..... dont put eggs in those nasty bators!! lol shrugs!
