First time hatching I usually allow mother goose to do her work but have decided its time to try this out!
Okay so this is what I have done so far:
I have 6 eggs in the incubator just put them in today. 2/4/13
Temp: is set at a steady 99.0
I won't turn on the auto turner till tomorrow afternoon (24 hours)
I weighed all the eggs and recorded it.
I will be checking eggs on the 10th to see if any are viable.
Truly I think none our viable as my birds have mated maybe 4 times tops that I have seen. And we have been in the negatives for the last 3 weeks here in NW. So when offered a pool they have not wanted it of course who would! LOL! But my silly goose as decided to lay... crazy bird... Anyways maybe I will be lucky and might get one or 2 of out of this!
Either way this is good practice. As she is going to continue to lay here.
Now is 99.1 to high for Sebs? I am going off my Brinsea Octo 20 book....
Also do you keep the ventilation open half way the entire time? UGH! lol This will be for sure a good practice run
