Oh, I hit reply before seeing your offer, Rathbone! I would love to have your assistance, too! Can you pm me?

I'm trying to figure out how much time/effort this will take and will likely merge this into a Facebook group for the SA chickens involved...long story...right now must run!

Thanks so much!!!

BTW Daisychick, I did this the last time I cleaned my incubator as well. It has had no problems at all this week with the turkey eggs I set last Saturday. I felt the same, just had to get all that dander and fluff out of there.

I did it and it was easy and now it is all clean. I have it running empty right now and it is right up to temp. LOVE IT! Now I have to sit here and watch the clock tick tock slowly while I wait for Saturday to set eggs!!! I am so excited! I love hatching with all of you guys, it makes it tons of fun!

I was nervous too, but I did it and it was easy to get back together properly. Just watch the thermometer and the thermostat probe get back where they were originally. The probe looks like no more than the end of a insulated wire, and sits next to the thermometer bulb.

ChooksChick the eggs are here

they are sitting in the box settling so I will keep you updated on progress and thanks again for these little d'uccle eggs.

Shamo eggs are here too!! They're settling, while I debate waiting until sat for the easter hatch.

 

[Cetawin]

I am doing the same self debate...LOL But I am firing up the bator tomorrow and re-calibrating the hygrometer and withstand this temptation to set them until Sat.

I too have been wondering about cleaning out the Brinsea top, now I will. Thanks everyone!

I got my eggs from sonew today... BLRW & OE.

Now.. do I wait to set them Sat. or go ahead and set them tonight ????

I am soooo undecided?? I will still have my eggs to set on Sat.

Do you all think it is too long to wait for Sat. ???????

I wish I was smarter.

I would have had a great pic the other day of 6 hens in a nest box. I was too busy helping them out, to think of a pic till later. Heads, feet and tails everywhere.

We could have had a contest for wackiest flock.

Got my first set of eggs in the mail today. Two (?) more to get here...
