There's a good bit of difference between a hunting dog and a killer dog. Hunting dogs do it for thrill of the chase, killers do it for the thrill of killing.

Exactly!!

Persistence pays off. Just have to keep the upper hand, and it'll sink in sooner or later. If you don't believe it, just ask my wife...

If I get more Brabanter eggs tomorrow they're going in the bator too. I did find my hen and she's fine but it really scared me that I might lose out on her genetics. I'm up to 5 eggs in there now.
Humidity is 29% and drying out. It will probably get to 25% at its low and 30% at its high (based on previous tests). The turner is fine. I actually use the timer as a switch because I'm around. Temp is hovering between 99.5 and 100.5 with the fan and light working well. Even if these eggs are fertile, I will have the challenge of this MacGyverbator and whether or not it will work for hatching. With some water I could get it to 60% humidity during tests, but didn't test it all the way to 70%. I will candle on Tuesday or Wednesday and let you know.
