Howdy folks - just popping in to say hi. All is well here. I did indeed do a rewatch binge (and then another) of Hannibal. But also I took a big break from everything during last week and am still trying to limit at-home computer times as a change-up, since it had gotten to where it was a big time suck and I wasn't getting some stuff done. I'll be back sooner or later, but will probably be mostly AWOL from BYC for a little while longer.

Hugs to all! See you on the flip side!

I understand! You think your just gonna pop in say hi and see what's up and three hours later. . . I do miss hearing about your day though! Don't be too much of a stranger!

Here we go again. Murphy seems to have moved in with me.
Not only have I stuck the saw twice through my own ignorance (got it out both times), but now the Polaris won't run all at once; same problem I paid $180 last week to have fixed. Grrr

That is so frustrating! I hate when you just have something fixed and it's not fixed. Or you buy something new and it breaks the first time you use it.

My poults have arrived! I'll upload the pictures here in a bit. I ordered 15, they sent 17. 1 died on the way and 1 looks like it has a broken leg. I put on my order that I was hoping for something penciled and they were nice enough to include a penciled palm and a blue penciled palm for me and marked them I'm really excited! The rest are from a mixed pen of buff, black, chocolate, and BR. 2 look to be chocolate, 1 I'm not sure what it is but it looks blueish and has a pink/peorple mark on its head. The only ones that were supposed to be marked are the blue penciled palm and the penciled palm (which are marked). So I'll probably keep those 5. The rest look like palms, buffs, red bronze, and 1 little black.

I run on 37.5 degrees Celsius and it is usually about 60% humidity. I have this kind of incubator for the first 18 days https://www.ebay.com.au/i/151126528751?chn=ps&dispItem=1 and then it goes into this incubator for the final 3 http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Hatcher-...831177&hash=item51a7e043a1:g:mj0AAOSwbiFZTGnM

Reduce your Humidity to 45% in incubation.

So sorry about baby B!

Glad to hear gummy near baby doing good!



Stay safe, sounds too close too me. No evacuation?



I don't think we ever have humidity that low.



Awwwwwww



Nope



I was reading about that yesterday. How horrible.



It needs to be done.

Yeah

Baby B didn't make it - but Baby A is doing well.
He or She looks like a little gummi bear.

Oh Kajira,
So sorry... glad Baby A is still hanging in there, though.

Oh my god. I would go to a motel until it was fixed.

So tempted, but tourist season in Lancaster (why does everyone need to stare at the Amish?) and hotels crazy expensive! So instead did no cooking and ate out for dinner each night. Got expensive with 3/4 teens home still.

Thank goodness HVAC guy has temporarily drained a foot of water and a 1000 mosquitoes from the AC, per my son. I don't understand how this could be, but whatever, it's cooler now.

Air cells are a great tool during incubation.
