Incubating in my bra

[Ninjasquirrel]

Do you need me to draw you a diagram? Just kidding But yes, one egg under each pillow.

I wonder what that diagram would look like

I'm probably not going to candle until day three (I'll be sure to post a picture), but thus far things are going pretty well. The worst part is having to wear a bra the entire time. It's going to be magical when I can go back to letting things swing and sway the old fashioned way.

I think it's awesome that more people are getting involved. I wish everyone the best luck & please post updates! I'm half tempted to try some chicken eggs soon but timing right now is not quite right & I keep asking myself if I'm crazy enough.....

I'm doing two, cause I figured why not since my fun bags are on the large side, so I think they were probably talking to me. Good luck on your hatch! I'm hoping for similar success. I don't know how you are, humidity-wise, but my hygrometer that I checked my bracubator setup with stayed consistently between 65-66%, so you're probably good. Granted, I am a swamp beast, but I'm not actually sweating that much...yet. Or else the washcloth I put in there to keep sweat off the eggs is absorbing it all...

Wishing you good luck as well, @TheAlrightyGina ! ❤

Oh my, @Magapoule. How do you keep from dancing around from excitement?

Has anyone managed this? As in genuinely?

Has anyone managed this? As in genuinely?

There is anecdotal evidence from history, but I don't know if anyone has done it with scientific rigor. Not that I am...but I do know from research into both chicken and quail incubation that it is possible to hatch them both at less than ideal temperatures. 98.6 degrees F(which is an average, people can run + or - a degree or more from that) is capable of producing a decent hatch. I measured the humidity for the area where bracubating would occur, and for me at least, it was consistently 65-66%. The complicating factor is gonna be movement, but if an individual can keep from doing anything especially scrambling things should be ok.

But we shall see! The only way to find out is to do, and once done to have others replicate the results!

Any news on the egg? Any pipping?
