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

Nope, never liked parrots, cockatiel, etc. I didn't care in a pet shop, but tossed out food and poop? No thanks.
I like when she yells at some people, but as I said. I don't like to yell. Yelling scares me.
Well, Whites said he couldn't put the thread down. I was helping!

I know, I know. You just wanted to help.

Thanks for the help. So it will be safe for me to move the eggs for the automatic Turner

Good luck with your hatch. If you haven't already read the hatching 101 page, then that would be a good place to start. Here is what that has for lock down:

LOCKDOWN!
Stop turning, Remove Turner and Raise Humidity to 65% - 70%
depending on what your air cells may still need

NOTE: It is now known that the different embryos communicate with each other by a series of clicking sounds,
the rate of clicking being the important feature. Ensuring the eggs on the hatching trays are in contact with each other facilitates
the synchronization of hatching where the eggs are incubated in a modern machine. This assists in reducing the time between when the first and last chicks hatch.


After Day 18 candle you will “LOCK DOWN” your eggs. Lower the temperature see suggest temps below and increase the humidity the last three days. STOP turning and the incubator stays closed, for the next three days while the chicks hatch! If you’re having a hard time with humidity it is OK to open quickly to boost, add warm water or increase the size of the pan or add a wet sponge. NEVER ADJUST HUMIDITY BY cutting back airflow. VENTILATION is EXTREMELY important at this stage!

Researchers have found that lowering temperatures will prolong incubation,
HOWEVER it is favourable to do so at the end of incubation.
Day 19 & 20 Temp Min 98.0 Max 98.5
Day 21 Temp Min 97 Max 98.0

Hi, Jess! How are you? What's hatching?
Is the sun kinda up there? I think it is so funny how the sunrise/sunset changes so much withing a few miles in Pennsylvania. All the valleys and peaks really make a difference!

This was 7 hours and 9 pages ago but of well lol. The sun is kinda up almost every morning when the alarm goes off at 6am. The peaks and valleys rant do make a difference. It's always good and bright here in the morning as the sun shines through the trees but in the evening, it's darker earlier here because the trees on the hill really block it out!

The frogs are hatching!

LOL! I thought I was just being ignored. I was more annoying than usual (I think. I hope I'm not usually so annoying!!) this morning.
