I'm on day 4, 11 and 13 of my various hatches and feel the need to candle something!!

I used to be a night owl, but as I've gotten older, I like to sleep too much and the demands of my time each morning tells me I need to go to bed earlier....

You could candle most of that!

You're a mother you need to rest, that's too much work.

My other curse is I tend to wake early, but will go back to bed after a coffee. lol

Yes my grams neighbor she takes this pill to make her sleep and then she takes it later than she should and sleeps until 2:30-3:00 pm

I sleep walk,so I can't take any sleep aides. It would make it much worse! I love your Avy Roada!!

I figure I'll candled everything on Sunday, that's when I'm supposed to lock down the first batch. I normally candle the day before lockdown, but I have a mud run scheduled on Saturday, and by the time I get home from that, and cleaned up, I don't want to do much of anything.

After haphazardly piecing the refrigerbator together, I realized I had forgotten one tiny detail... how to control the egg turners. I thought I was going to have to bite the bullet and purchase an IncuStat Advanced thermostat, and figured I may as well get the 125W heater to go with it... and basically scrap the current design. By the time I added two Hovabator 1611's, the price tag in my Incubator Warehous carti(including shipping) was $258. A tiny voice in my head told me to pick up the phone and call IW to see if the IncuStat would have no trouble operating two 1611 egg turners, and the knowledgeable representative (Evan) informed me that the 1611 turner motors were 110V AC. Since I haven't seen any documentation (power wise) for the 161, I assumed they were 12V DC. Evan proceeded to inform me that the motors on the 1611's are designed for continuous use, and since they have such slow RPM, they will make a full revolution once every 4 hours. Since they require no controller, and only cost me $110.51... I can't ask for anything more!!! I wish the refrigerbator had been a little over 15" front to rear instead of of 14 1/2". I'll have to remove the end trays (losing 14 slots) so they'll fit, but I think a 70 egg capacity will suit my needs for the time being... Since my goal is to eventually do staggered hatches, I'll need to start work on a separate hatcher soon. Do these project ever end???

I need one of this turner!!!!!
