I'd love to try geothermal....

What area is your camp?

Our camp is 2 hours and 15 minutes from home, not serviced by a passable road (4WD only), with no utility service. It's a wonderful place to go to get away from everyone. While it's not an ideal place to LIVE, it is an awesome place to get away, to hunt, and to hang out and make as much noise as we **** well please.

Congrats, Turk, on all you've accomplished!

Incubator TV is the most boring channel ever today. I wonder if I miscounted, as there are only half a dozen pips across 3 hatchers on what I thought was day 21.

Ravyn, this may surprise you, but I now believe that hatching saddled eggs upright is a good idea. I have some of this batch of all shipped eggs upright, some on their side. I think it is easier for the chicks to rotate under the saddle dips when gravity pulls them to the point of the egg. The Spitzes were my experiment and they did incredibly well.

Haha. I think you should. Did you ever see the article about the guy who kept a spread sheet for like 3 months of how he got shot down by his wife?   Funny, but stupid.

Never saw that! I could see the humor he probably thought, but I could also guess the outcome on her side

I'll see your LO pen and raise you my ducks nighttime pen!

I was wondering if the steps were a cover story...

Getting there...

Very stupid... bet that 3 months got extended to 6 when she saw that...

If he's lucky... it would end in murder if I tried that, although some may consider it a justifiable homicide.

I don't think it turned out the way he'd hoped...although I don't know how much he thought it through.

Oh! I didn't know were could throw the ducks in too!

And don't I wish it were a cover story!

So you're standing by the original story still, huh?

I was just wondering what part of the state it was in? Although it doings like a good place to live for me...I was looking at places that had no real truck access....I know people who live without running water or electricity. I used to install solar systems and generators for them.
In fact the guy at the end of my road had a simple generator ,outhouse and sauna...

I've seen a lot of success hatching upright, no arguments there... I just don't like the use of egg cartons, blocks the view of too much of the egg if it pips low...

Glad those hatched well... can't wait to see the outcome of this one...

All's fair, ya know?
