Good Sir,
WHAT is your record for consecutively asked questions?

Is there such a thing as to many?

 

[Chaos18]

plenty

I assume that as well! 



Congrats!! mine are hatching now! 
I am not sure at all! have you posted in the duck section to ask?  you will have to candle and watch for draw down of the eggs to figure out their incubation periods as soon as you see the big drop LOCK DOWN

see here for draw down info:

I have a small problem with my new Brinsea.....I don't have enough eggs!!!!! I fit 30 eggs with the rails on one side, the other side is getting all small eggs and WAY more than 30 will fit. I wasn't going to use the rails on that side, and it's only 1/3 filled. Where can I get more eggs to fill it - do I try Trader Joe eggs?

/TRY ANYTHING fill it up!! ha ha ha

From a quick google search, I found that Muscovy are not genetically related to the other ducks that we are familiar with. All of the latter group are in the Mallard family, while Muscovy are more closely related to goose. Any hybrids produced from Muscovy x Mallard will produce a mule duck, which will be sterile. Varying response re: if a female hybrid will lay eggs.

out of ovates! thanks so much for helping out LG!!!

Good morning everyone!! Question about the Brinsea.....the paperwork it came with makes a HUGE deal about how calibrated it is and says why would we take a $10 thermo/hygro and believe it over the $700 machine? Should I bother adding additional ones?

Question about my lone Salmon Favorelle. He/she is about 4 weeks old. It won't stay still, so photos aren't great....

I'm leaning toward boy.....what do you think?

So husband and I figured out that if we can level the coop out with a car jack and some bricks we can actually just repair and paint and the coop will be fine for a while longer. I'm not sure if I want the cost of repairing though, it seems like it might be cheaper to just build a new one and then paint that and demolish the old one. The design sucks, and I've wasted tons of manhours on it already.

hippie you will get there! surely its not that beat up?

This is what my wife picked out for her birthday....this chair and a matching dual recliner sofa......they will be ready for pick up in 6 weeks. She really liked the leather and the cedar facing. It'll be the first time all our furniture will match.....and wasn't hand me downs. Also quill match out rustic log end tables and antler lamps.

thats awesome phil, glad things are comin along for you two!! Happy Birthday Wishes and enjoy!

Hova bator 1588 is running (no eggs set in it yet) & it says temp of 100 degrees (sometimes 99.9) & I did add some water because humidity was on registering at 14% without it. Now with some water added, temp is same & humidity has now been 44% for awhile.

My question is, I've got a secondary thermometer/hygrometer with a probe IN the incubator and the temp keeps saying 101.8 or 102. I thought I'd calibrated the new separate thermometer/hygrometer but now I'm not sure.
Anyone specifically have experience with this bator?
I don't want it too hot but also not sure that the meter with probe is currently accurate...:-/

never go with the one that comes in the bator, thats why most of us have two extras that we can calibrate to make sure how much the one that is built in the bator is off or not. If your sure of calibrations I would go with the secondary, if you need to recalibrate I would do that another thermo may be in order.

Look what my cousin lent me since all my eggs wouldn't fit in my auto turner! I have 35 in and have room for 265 more.

AWESOME!!!!! OMG chicks to come!!

Morning Mike!!

did you catch Bantis post on the drawing contest? '

The same is said about $30k automobiles, then half of them are recalled!
