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

[kwhites634]

Time flies, doesn't it? I just finished the 'bator yesterday. I need more thermometers, but preliminary testing shows stable temperatures from the top rack to the bottom. (Ignore the disparity in the readings; the thermometer had just been placed back into the incubator.) I'm setting eggs next week.

Of course the hen managed to hatch all Black ones just like my DD wanted so I really want to see them survive... silly birds. I was amazed at how fast they seemed to come round so Maybe??
thank you for the nice thoughts!

Makes me mad as it is almost a day long event and Luke just went through it, and not like I will drop her off and leave her! ughhh I think I should say no, but I am not good at that.

Judy's sister & family were over for a while; that was all.
Does PA let you take at least some of the course online? MD does.
