Congrats on the new bator. Hope you enjoy it. Unfortunately I don't think you would be interested in any of my mutts either. I enjoy them but they would be a disapointment to most I'm sure.

In other news I think all of my research on DIY bators is starting to run together. Primarily thermostats and placement thereof. For wafers is placement critical, seems like that was more for probes and hot water heater set ups. Finally got all the last bits and pieces together but am trying to finalize thermo placement.

Thanks its sweet! hmmmm It should be near the heat source I think but not sure! almost all I have seen were 5-10 inches from heat. Need research on that one

It's a good thing my incubator is at the school, I'm itching to candle eggs!

I hear lots of chirping in the incubator but don't see pips yet. They're due in 20 hours.

My daughter left this morning for a short 2 week vacation in Spain. Visiting Madrid, Barcelona, Seville and a couple other stops.
I failed to talk her into bringing Penedesenca and Empordanesa eggs back to me. I guess I'll have to make the trip myself.
