EDUCATIONAL INCUBATION & HATCHING CHAT THREAD, w/ Sally Sunshine Shipped Eggs

[FaerieChicken]

Metzer farms sells them at 17 days. And no thanks, gross, :-D

Me too, I wouldn't eat them I don't think, they probably are stinky!

I don't mind doing it for my coworkers. A great way to earn some money I guess. Its their culture too though, and probably hard to find good, fresh and organically grown eggs around here, let alone have an incubator to do it yourself!

2 tbs butter
2-3 tbs of vegetables oil, olive oil is the best
1 sherded onion
1 leek only th white part, sherded.

2 medium pealed potatoes
200-250 cream for cooking

I hope this is ok to ask..... For those who have done this: How long do you incubate Balut for? I have several coworkers interested in me incubating Duck eggs for them for Balut. Should I Just do it to their prefrence, as 1 person said he likes his only 7 to 10 days, but I have seen where some do it for 14 days or even 17!

!?

Whatever boats your float, I guess. I'd certainly never even consider it. Now, if you'll pardon me, I'm going to go upchuck

You're up early.

Ello everyone, right so I have some eggs and they are hatching 6 days and other eggs that are hatching in 13 days, my question is how to I turn those eggs manually when the day 6 eggs go into lockdown. I was think of get a prod and moving them through the vent holes in the incubator.

Yes ma'am, I usually am. Mother Nature usually hollers about 5:00, and it's normally fruitless trying to go back to sleep, so I just stay up. Trouble is, I'm also a nightowl. I guess I like my quiet.
I just realized! You're 3 hrs behind me. Talk about being up early! Or have you not gone to bed yet?

How are you?

I wouldn turn the later guys on hatch day for the short-timers, so you don't have to take the lid off.I was think of get a prod and moving them through the vent holes in the incubator.

Right or wrong, I'd turn the earliest batch normally until lockdown, then put the others in lockdown a half or full day ahead of time. After that, I wouldn't do any staggered hatches unless I had 2 incubators.

Well, most of us are not happy with the entire concept, and I don't even want to know.
