DIY CABINET COOLER INCUBATOR How we did it and TEST RUN Ready Set GO!

[sonderah]

it wouldnt be stable underneath. Thats why we didnt put it under. 

I have found that if the rod could get centered somehow it would be better for adding and removing trays, because I have to remember to place eggs evenly weight wise on each side of the rod, only because when I remove trays it can get a tilt factor if they are not all somewhat equal, meaning I cant have two full rows in the back and one in the front.  

I guess a holder tray would be best, but at this time I am not making one, as I am careful enough.  I can easily see how someone not paying attention could have a major issue with the trays like this.  so perhaps its in eveyones best interest to make a frame to hold these trays.  

I am sure someone shows how to make them somewhere on the thread, if you find a link hook us up.  

I have the Easter HAL mini fun night to work on this week and I dont have time to research these!  sorry! 

I do not personally need more space. Lol I'm only hatching 15-20 eggs at a time right now. So I feel sure the 120 something spaces would be plenty for me. LMBO

Yes, but you must understand. I get up for work at 5am. After my shower, I dress and go out to the porch of the chick nursery for a smoke. Then I go in and check the brooders and incubators. I am still waking up! The first time I went to an incubator and saw 37.5 I would have a STROKE! lol

Ahh, spoken like a true American! Anyone else remember in grade school when they taught us the metric system and said it was a "done deal" that we would convert to it? At least the soda manufacturers got that memo.

Now as for the chickens, that is more my project than hers. But for all other things.......the "gotcha" starts out with her telling me she doesn't think I can do it!
