I have my next hatch planned

You need to install a hydraulic lift for the 'bator lid first, with a timer set to go off every 15 min,

Come on lavenders. I'm hoping to use mine in the Easter HAL

Hope your ankle is much better

I only have two Lavender hens so it will be a small percentage if I get them
The ankle is improving, but being back at work keeps it aching. I am able to work though so that is great.

@Saris, what was used to clean the chick in the video?

I think the next 6 hatches are planned for most people

I usually check the septic tank first to see if it made it down the crapper.

I'd have to move mine somehow & check the hole.

Quote: WRONG

Why

because they are difficult to incubate,

Set 66 eggs last night. I have my fingers crossed for fertility after my roos were sick.
Possible Lavenders I this time

as my Lavender Orpington pullets started laying four weeks ago.

DAX!!! morning how are you feeling? ankle rested up swelling down yet? My goodness thats tons of great chicks!!

Quote: I haven't had the "R" put in front yet.

I had a nuclear bone scan last January and they said I have degenerative changes in some bones (feet mostly) but said no RA. The chest is recent; hope it eases up when the weather warms. My hands get worse when I drink lots of cokes, or spend too much time on my phone.

oh good! wish i was as lucky! got it from the grandmother and brought on early from health issues. lol on the phone!! too funny!

Watch out for splashback when you do.

I have the goose egg one that I use for pea eggs.

-Kathy

Did you use/have the smaller one for the duck eggs that you're having trouble with? (Looked like universal rails in the photo.)

From what Sally posted, it could certainly be a couple other things, but I know that turning was NOT good with the universal rails in mine. FWIW.

- Ant Farm 

Used the rails, but will look into getting what your suggested.

-Kathy

I found turning with the correct size insert for the eggs worked really well. The rails were not so good.

Thanks for the feedback!
