@Chaos18 - yes, I have a running thank you card to @Sally Sunshine ... Even with reading 101 about a hundred times, the humidity debate still seems to be the "main debate".... I'd like to go with the 90-100% hatch rate peeps, thank you.

Yes there will always be debates about what works best as long as there is incubation. What works good in a particular climate might not work good for somebody else 100 miles down the road. I think what Sally has provided is more of a bench mark to start from, not an end all debates type thingy. I'd like to join them peeps as well next time I incubate

good morning you all!! EYS!
Morning Benny!! vas is das?
awesome, feathering in nicely! The boy like holding them? or just the one he named?
That's a fowl way to talk to me this morning.:frow Morning:hugs Yes they are feathering in nicely. Was surprised at how fast they are feathering in. The boy loves to hold them and get s a kick out of them peeping at him and them trying to eat his fingers. The daughter loves to pet them and giggles about it every time she touches one.
adorable!
HOW to keep typing after you @ someone! see: post #1088 This worked for me and Sally. https://www.backyardchickens.com/t/...earn-chat-meet-new-friends/1080#post_16082648 [@=/u/254224/Pensmaster]@Pensmaster[/@] Thanks Bubbles, mine does let me keep typing with the @ sign. However it does not when I put in the emoticons by typing. Spell check slams me. :eek: well it didn't this time. :idunno or this time. Weird anyways if it does in the future I'll be trying your trick. Were you able to mark the knob and top of incubator did it help. I know for me it helped as it does not take much to move that knob for temperature swing to happen and having a point of reference helped. On my coolerbator I've made a 4" knob made out of 1/8" plywood on the wafer thermostat with marks. Much easier to see where I'm at with that. I think my @ problem is this ancient pad and as local mentioned I need to check the rich format setting which I don't know how to do. I just read that this device will only read Basic editor. Looks like il be using phone to tag someone :gig
Peter you have to @jkskkksksks wait for the little blue pop up to show up with the list of names click the name and then it turns blue, and then to keep typing you have to click somewhere BEFORE the @ and then go behind it to start typing again, not sure why but thats how its done!
:caf Good morning everyone! I think I came up with the answer for my ridiculous blowing light bulb issue. Since everything was right on my end I'm gonna guess that the box either got impacted during transit or dropped off of the shelf. One of the bulbs did not work at all and two of them blew out within 24 hours. After sally sunshine asked if they flew into it, I was a little paranoid about the birds flying into the fixture and knocking it around so I bought 2 rough service bulbs and hopefully they're better. I shall see. But in summary I bought a pack of bad bulbs:( .
morning!! hope they work!!!
This my afternoon coffee! ( illy espresso, in my Bialtti makineta!)

Ha- I know, right?!? Here is a shot where you can maybe see some of the Day 8 ACs... All but the silkie eggs were shipped, accounting for a few pretty gnarly ACs.
