Hatching Eggs / Paypal CHAT Thread

Oh no! Just woke up and realized we don't have any power. I bet someone knocked over the phone pole again by our house last night sometime. It's a really right curve and a couple times a year someone going to fast plows into it. Got a phone call from pg and e telling me about. Not good. That means its gonna be a while. My incubator is full and likely has been without power for 6 hours. It could easily be all day before power is back on. Also have so many chicks needing hear lamp!! Aargh. Not sure what to do but wait and hope for the best. Also it's about 30 degrees outside so garage and barn are prob about 40-45 degrees. That's where all the chicks are. Oh boy!

Oh, no!!!

I guess I am spoiled...we have two wood stoves and a generator.

wish you werent so far away...you could move in with us temporarily, if the 'bators are portable, that is.

Any suggestions on cheap place to buy?

Lowes or Home Depot?

Jeff do you have a Harbor Freight? They have some small ones that are cheap.

Papa,

Hope the power comes on soon and all the chicks huddle close enough to stay warm but not trample each other. Good luck.

On another note, does anyone know where to get the list of people that won prizes? I need to know who I owe eggs to.

Thanks.

Quote: I grabbed like 4'big blankets an draped them over the incubator. I have a cabinet so the car doesn't work to keep them warm. Gonna call pg and e in 2 hours to get a time estimate and then may have to consider a generator.

Oh no!!! I'm so sorry to hear that! I hope they get your power restored quickly!

I have no chicks yet but pips in LF Buff Fav, some BCMs that are about 7s and two that are 8s, also in the Olive Eggers. Fingers crossed for the two CCLs from Candace that made it to lockdown!!!!!
