Looking forward to getting a needle shoved in my back. If the Dr. Can get done fighting insurance should happen Friday.
Good Luck!! i hope it helps!!

The lady I purchased maran eggs from on that horrible hatch is giving me eggs end of April. I have a few turkey eggs to set as well.
awesome! is she going to leave them au natural this time?

@BantyChooks lockdown today. AC aren't nearly big enough, so not sure how successful this is going to be. I never added a drop of water. Guess humidity from the house got in when I cracked the lid to regulate temp.

The most accurate thermometer!
sweet! did you know when I was a lil gal, I found one of those shook it and got mercury in my eye. ER visit and they had no clue what to do. my one eye was effected vision wise and nothing else that we know of, but perhaps this is why I am a mess

Mercury poisoning isn't a joke!

Been over a year since i incubated what do I need to keep humidity on days 1-18?
what breeds eggs? @South OH Chicks
how are air cells to start? here is a copy paste.....
HUMIDITY Humidity is NOT a set number!

It is a tool to get the correct weight loss in the egg! post #7068 see Hatching Eggs 101

Saxony ducks made their way to the United States when the Holderread Waterfowl Farm imported them in 1984. They were admitted into the American Poultry Association's American Standard of Perfection in the Fall of 2000. The Saxony is an active forager and excellent layer with typical egg production at about 190-240 large white eggs annually. Saxony do not grow quite as fast as some ducks, "but they have interesting plumage, produce meat with more flavor and less fat, are better foragers, and are more likely to incubate and hatch their eggs. Saxonys are one of the best large all-purpose breeds of ducks and adapt well to a wide range of environments." (Holderread, 2001)
