INCUBATING w/FRIENDS! w/Sally Sunshine Shipped Eggs No problem!

[Sally Sunshine]

I'm trying to prepare if any of my hens go broody this summer. Have any of you ordered fertile eggs from a company and did if you did did the timing work out?

there may be issues with shipped eggs and loose air cells with shipped eggs for sure!

I now have 14 eggs in the incubator , so far only 1 of the bator unplugging mess ,hatched i think im going to take a peak with a light to see if i see any movement tonight cause im really thinking they might be no gos now :-(

you dont want to know how many eggs I think I lost overnight to find my bator unplugged!!! I would say almost 200 half serama and I need chicks so bad from them for orders!! it was down to 68 some on day 7 and some on day 3

Found a river with steel head in it... Can't fish till Friday hope it's not too late.....

awesome!!! hope you hit them!!

I hope so too......I have to take my wife into the hospital tomorrow..... She has been hiding her symptoms since her accident...... So if she's not better tomorrow she's going to let me take her into the walk in clinic. Today is I guess the first day she hasn't had a headache.

Hope they're able to help at the hospital. Will send out an extra prayer.

I keep seeing reports of 'bators being found unplugged. I have two possible solutions:

1) I've had plugs that didn't want to stay in the outlet snugly enough to maintain contact. Usually, but not always, if you squeeze the prongs of the plug a bit closer together, it will hold more snugly in the outlet.

2) I've never tried this, but I wonder if you could wrap one end of a light wire around the cord, close as possible to the base of the plug, then back off on the screw in the center of the switch plate enough to make a single wrap of wire around it before re-tightening it. A longer screw, with the same thread, would probably be needed. Be sure not to leave extra wire (after wrapping the screw) that might contact the other half of the outlet.
