yes there was a lot of talk of doing it but nobody actually went through with it
we even found the pdfs for it

Pre-incubation
Vessel (preferred to use a polymethylpentene film because of its high oxygen permeability)
430ml polystylene plastic cup was used as the pod for the culture vessel
Artificial culture (distilled water / Calcium Lactate) benzalkonium chloride
Turning

This is the issue we need to figure out if we were to even attempt it..... We need PURE Oxygen *pure oxygen was aerated at approximately 500ml/h through the plastic tube inserted into the artificial vessel from day 17



How much Oxygen does a plant put off? just a thought, and since the film is stretched to have more permeability of oxygen, how much can one stretch this to its limit, and is there another way to add oxygen besides pumping it in? And I do realize that no plant produces O2 during the night, no matter which type of photosynthesis it does.

this is one post

A sweatshirt???  It won't be cool enough here for a sweatshirt until January LOL!

It is cold in parts of the house, and was cool enough to play with Duckling outside with it on. Guess it's been so warm, the seventies felt cool.

11 more days to go on first 2 eggs... patience is a virtue I'm quickly losing. 11 eggs total and counting.

I can help with cheese, and get one of the yogurt makers goat yogurt is really yummy

I have a Nubian that gives milk that has no goat taste and is really good. I am really finicky about goat milk if it is goaty at all. It really varies from goat to goat and diet to diet. If you want one you might want to by your first as a just freshened goat that you can try the milk. It is a bit more expensive to buy one just freshened, but you would know. You could also shop for one now where they are later and some people are drying them up and you would know. I have two Saanen and one has great sweet milk, and the other is a bit goaty for me as milk, but she gives a lot that makes great yogurt, cheese, and cooking/baking milk.

I'll be bugging you when I'm getting closer.

Has anyone ever hatched a group of eggs with diffrent due dates in the same incubator? This is my first time incubating and I had a few quitters in the beggining and added some more to take thier place (didn't think about it) now I'm going into lockdown on my first egg. And having to raise the humidity for 3 days. 3 eggs are set to go into lockdown on its hatch day because they are 3 days younger, and then I have 4 that are due 2 days after them. Everyone has developed perfectly up until this point and I'm afraid that raising the humidity and not turning those eggs for 7- 9 days will cull the last hatch. Do I risk it and open the hatch twice a day to turn the other eggs? Run the humidity a tad lower? Or will it be fine to just let them be?

Sorry. That is too many due dates. I've done eggs a week apart.

No clutch for me. DH let Baby Beaux goat out of the pen, just to see if he'd browse and stay close to the rest of the flock. He did, and he also went straight to where feed is stored and stomped my eggs. So I'll save this project for later. It would work better in the spring to just separate her for a few weeks, then give her to the hona roo to breed, then collect a clutch. So the project is postponed!

Awe!

Yes it is a good idea to abandon this project, I think that stumped eggs will be quite a challenge to hatch. ..........

In my opinion you have created a problem that you can't solve with one bator. You need anoter one that serves as a hatcher for lockdown. If you raise the humidity now you will jeopardizing your younger eggs.

I might do that thank you!

 

[Lucky Lemon]

I'll be watching to see if any of you try it!!!

Sorry to hear they got smooshed.

Thanks everyone. I guess it wasn't a good idea to plan a hatch when I have 70+ chickens to sell. :/

LOL..anyone ever see this? Set three traps. Had the baby chicks in a secure place. Of course I knew that the mice would still find the food, and be able to get to it, but I usually catch a mouse when I set a few traps out with cheese.
This baby got stuck!
