[BantyChooks]

Ooooohhhhh that's a terrible goal Go big or go home 

Guess I'll go home then, because I meant what I said, and I said what I meant!

I'm not even going to say what I threw out a few months ago.... Oh the agony...

@casportpony Bill P. From the Missouri AG Dept. Works with NPIP etc. Recommend Hoover Hatchery and Murray both of which are in IA and are Mycoplasma free and test monthly.
Has anyone ever used either of them?

I have not heard of them, but that doesn't mean anything. do they have websites?

Yes 19 not 18

At least you're kinder than Benny; he said 16

Don't know about that, but I know there are places in the West, where there are single ranches encompassing 1000's of acres apiece, where mail is dropped from single-engine planes flying regular routes, which may explain why shipped eggs suffer so much damage

How would a shipper ever pack eggs for such a situation? Parachute, perhaps, onto a specific drop zone containing multiple water bed mattresses?

Think about food and water drops to starving people in war zones.

Tony P. tests my birds. I haven't used any of those hatcheries.
I've had MS here but it has never made the birds sick.

I meant to tell you how yummy that grill looked that you posted.

I was in charge of a tape library that would probably have held a small house

In the army, I was in charge of the map room for an artillery group headquarters. That was just a side job but I loved it.
I could make a map of any part of Europe in sizes from 1:10,000, 1:50,000 (most common) 1:100,000 and 1:250,000.

boooooooo Why would anybody get rid of a heavily insulated cooler?

 

[Chaos18]

That's cause he's Israeli

 

[BantyChooks]

boooooooo Why would anybody get rid of a heavily insulated cooler?

Because the lid and wheels were broke.... Woulda been ok for a bator, just too broke for its intended use.

But I thought the intended use for all heavily insulated coolers was as incubators?

 

[kwhites634]

I don't have a big cooler, silly!

I am trying to keep costs down until I know I can succesfully hatch eggs after MG!

Edit: My goal is to build an almost free bator, with the exeption of the wafer stat.

You can do anything; you're Banty, or Bubbles, or Bubs, or BB ,or........................

@Sally Sunshine fence is finished for now. All toys are out of boxes and measurements line up. here's the cut out for the sheet of plywood for a 28x20x14 box with a 24x16x10 interior.

The plywood is 1/2" cdx and I have 1" thick sheet of foil faced foam insulation, giving a solid 2" of insulation prior to the planned lining of the interior.
