Absolutely, if necessary you always solve the problem by buying another incubator!!!

Oh dang.............I think I just asked someone to stop me............oh well, I was just kidding.

Besides, the lakenvelder should have moved out by the time the araucana need to move in, efficient housing!

Is it time to candle yet?

By the way, icing my finger for about 8 hours straight and taking high doses of naproxen around the clock really seemed to help. I have better movement of the finger today, although it's still black and sausage-like. The pain isn't too bad today, only when I try to use it to do something. I'm happy I can type today, so it is feeling better - wasn't sure what I was going to do at work tomorrow if it wasn't improved. The BFs family has a bunch of nurses and paramedics that looked at it today. They're all urging me to splint it...

Working on setting up the LG for turkey eggs--a challenge. Had to think about the best set up, or rather what variable will I tweak this time:

I tried shipped egg on their sides the first time; this time I'm putting them in egg cartons and let them be for a few days.

I have looked into my eggs and don't even see an air cell yet. Is this good? Or bad?

ANd yes, I'm going nuts again.

Ok, I candled.

Couldn't see anything. Candled the silkie eggs too, just in case, they looked the same.

The worst part is I KNOW BETTER THAN THAT BUT I COULDNT CONTROL MYSELF!
