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

[kwhites634]

I'm making a list of butchering supplies... What have I missed?

PVC cutters
Poultry shears
Nice sharp knife
Heat source/pot
2 tables
Hose that hasn't been in the duck pool/gallon jugs filled by rugrats (mwhahaha)
Cooler filled with ice and water

How you plan to stuff those rugrats through the necks of those gallon jugs?

I haven't seen any mating yet!

Zip lock or heat vacuum seal bags for storage. permanent marker for labeling. Apron. cone or other kill items. nitrile gloves

Thank you!

I'm hoping to do it after the flies have been frozen.

That's it! I'm losing weight, buying a speedo, & taking my show on the road; I could use the money. I'll even furnish my own tools & tool belt.

Don't forget the hardhat

I didn't post that here?
Did I?

 

[kwhites634]

Nope! Not a behaving kind of day!

If you're not behaving, you must be having fun. Have some for me while you're at it.

DH does ours at dusk. The flys are dormant.. just skeeters on the butcherer. Weird how flys behave. They have such a short life span cycle and sleep during 48% of it.. hmmmm

I keep a turkey baster next to my baters for addition/subtraction. Helps get that lid closed fast.

You running a styro? I am, & I fill thru one of the vent holes in the lid; don't have to open the lid at all unless I need to lower the humidity. I don't use a baster, 'cause it would splash from that distance. I stuck a piece of aquarium tubing onto a small funnel...tube runs to the water's surface.
