Half Shell Hatch-A-Long! (Caution, unsuccessful, please read whole thread before attempting)

All good!
The selection was very limited for incubators here. Lol, as it is I spent more than it’s worth on the second one but since I already had one, I had a feel for how it behaved so it was ok. xD I’m not bothering with the turner at all and I don’t look at the thermostat, but I’ve got thermo/hygrometers for both and I think I’ve found the sweet spot for them now. I would love an NR but for me to order one in it would’ve cost me almost $500! So nope haha.
Quail eggs should arrive tomorrow, and the one I’ll be attempting this with is going to be incubated intact for the first 3 days, as I read in the study I’m going off of. Then I’ll crack the sucker into my contraption and see what happens from there! Haha.
Yesss the more the merrier!

I got mine from a TSC about an hour away. Shipping is SO expensive on them! It's ridiculous. Yeah, the Janoels definitely have a sweet spot. Good job finding it! Mine have been incubated for 3 days today, so I'm wondering if I should open them tonight? Sounds good! I'm excited for this.

Yeah, I'm not using the turner. I'll go with straight tp tubes then. I'll get some non-hatching eggs and play with those. Do you have any empty incubators? You could try with me... lol.

I do, but kiddo's school will be starting a in a few weeks. How we have no idea...but something is going to happen....or at least according to the district. I'm ready to rip out my hair because no one knows whats going on, so I think I'll stay away from the incubator for now...LOL!
I'll be watching yours though. It was fascinating to watch the first time!

Ok, lol. This whole covid thing is getting ridiculous I think. Good luck with the schools! No one knows what's happening here either. It's very confusing. Happy to have you following! It was really cool. I wish it would have worked.

@Trisseh have your quail eggs come? I'm going to open my eggs soon. I keep getting busy. I set a egg from my Brown hen too.

I’m glad to see you’re trying this again!

Thanks! I'm excited to try it too. I hope it works out! I got so close with ET last time.

Oh yeah, how's Mrs Tweedy? They must be getting close, right?
