Thank you, Abi. Just in time, and a very good morning to you, as well. Going to be a pretty day over here.

Does anybody know if fire 370 is okay?

If a wandering dog kills a chicken it gets locked up by animal control (if not shot first). What happens if a neighborhood cat kills chickens or chicks? Does animal control have any jurisdiction on dealing with it?

By law, I believe leash laws apply to cats as well but for some reason, that's ignored.
I don't get it.
Why do cats get a pass.

I can't remember the link right now, but there was a study that showed increased CO2 concentrations for the first ten days of incubation encouraged I think it was better muscle development in hatched chicks.

One I saw on the topic says broiler embryos can tolerate higher CO2 than layer type embryos and I suspect that coincides with your suggestion on muscle development.

I plan on investing in a CO2 meter someday.
I bought my first hygrometer in many years that I just put into one of the incubators a couple days ago. It seems to be much more accurate than the cheapies I had in the past.
