You'd think that bird would be bright enough to get in out of a snowstorm

Hooboy. I lost my place. Anyway Thanks and Hi!

So, too much humidity causes curled toes. Apparently I had it backwards somehow. I'm going to have to correct that! It does explain a lot and why the issue is appearing as the weather is getting colder.
On the bright side the hatcher is giving me great feedback on its temperature and humidity. The industrial sensor is leagues ahead of the reptile terrarium temp / humidity thing we're using on the incubator.

Unfortunately it's dark right now so photos won't turn out too well, but the itty bitty Silkie egg from one of our young pet silkies has juuust started to hatch. It's her first baby! Another Silkie x bitzer is hatching along with it too. Should be interesting to see what this one is like. One of the recent ones has black skin. I mean beyond Silkie black. It's extraordinary!

I am not going to heaven if I don't stop responding.

Sure you are.

Idk lol, when will I be able to tell?

I saw stuff day 5-6. You should be able to see things by 7 but don't toss them if you don't!

 

[BullChick]

Sure you are.

Sooner or later I am going to say something too clearly.

What humidity are you running during incubation? I'm guessing southern hemisphere since it's getting colder were you are.

Wrap a light wire around the cord & secure the other end under the center screw of the plate over the socket, making sure the tag end isn't long enough to contact the holes of the recepticle

Ehh. I just gaffer tape the plug to the socket. Ugly but it's not going anywhere!

And your point is?

Anyone else hate soggy enchiladas? Being Cinco De Mayo, I am making them, but I hate the leftovers, Making small batches gets old too.

ME!
