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

I will have to get you in our thread. Oh by the way. I went by Bradshaw feed today and they have lots of chicks. I was impressed. Almost bought a couple of houdans but was able to resist. Then they tell me they get new chicks every Thursday morning. Oh no. Might have to drive back up.

Yes every Thursday morning. I'm heading there tomorrow after work. Need feed... Well that's the excuse I'm using. Suppose to have naked necks in tomorrow I'm somewhat temped by them especially if they do so well in heat

Yeah, soaking in bleach might be problematic for styrofoam, so you can try the bleach spray-wait-alcohol thing. You might want to check an external corner surface for alcohol - I have no recall of how or if styrofoam reacts with alcohol at all. (I'm just naturally cautious).

Don't forget to sanitize everything that goes in there, though. That means the thermometer, hygrometer, sponges (boiling water will do that), any little bowls or containers that go in there, and every last little lego. If not sanitized, then make sure they're really clean. (You use a lot of legos - maybe soak them?) Yes, I realize a broody hen's butt is not a sterile environment, but you've had stinky eggs (and there might be something on one of the devices in there), and you want a better hatch rate...

Ha ha - you give me Banti Disease, but I give you IceCreamItis...

Thank you!!! Now, if only I had my notebook so I could write this down..... Really missing it....

I will do that!! Hmm, wonder if bleaching legos will hurt them.....


No fair!! One of these makes you fat, and the other simply insane.

When I started on this thread, the only way I could deal with all the good info people shared was to keep a Word document open and cut and paste posts into it and save it in my "chicken" folder.
