INCUBATING w/FRIENDS! w/Sally Sunshine Shipped Eggs No problem!

Extremely relevant. I noticed it was very slow. I'll have to keep looking for a charger. Why does it need the charger type instead of just a regular cord?

The charger has a transformer (box with plugs) that converts 120V AC to 12V DC. A standard power cord (without the DC transformer) would blow the fan to bits... and probably cause a fire in the process.

It doesn't necessarily have to be a charger. Any 12V DC transformer should work, as long as the amperage isn't extremely higher than the fan is rated for. You can safely use a 12V DC 1A transformer on a 12V DC .5A fan. 1/2 amp isn't going to cause any problems, but too many amps will cause premature failure... such as using a 5A transformer on a .5A fan. Make sense?

And @Sally Sunshine what are your thoughts on these day 7 aircells? they seem big to me, but I'm not sure.

That painting looks great! How long did it take you to make it?

Yes and not at all. I get all worked up when the wires aren't exactly the same colors. DH handled the wiring today.

But I'll definitely save this info for later. I read it to him, but I think our brains are already off for the night.

Tonight is the start of day 10, so I will candle again.

Thank you, it took about 6 hours total. I did it last night and this morning with my bestie.

Last night I left my door open for about 2 minutes while I went to get water and my cats killed one of my serama chicks. I have the one little guy left. He loves attention and I am getting him a Cochin friend from the feed store tomorrow. It is unfortunate what happened, but I am glad that one survived.
