thanks Shelley

Those buttons better you've got duckie eggs to put in there right!?!

 

[shelleyd2008]

Yes!!

I just got them actually! I have 5 pekin duck and 4 chinese/pilgrim goose!! I think I'm going to go borrow that other bator off my friend!! These buttons aren't due till tomorrow I think!!! AGH!! I don't know!! I set them on a Sunday night, so that would have made Monday day 1 right? So that would make tomorrow day 16. Plus I have been running the temp right around 99-100 for still air, and the bator has been acting up ever since I took the turner out, of course!! So they may be a bit late! The eggs have dates on them, and the oldest one is the 15th!! So they need to go in ASAP!

Congrats Monarc!
I know what it's like to have a temp spike. Sometimes things just happen. Having to put a baby down is rough, but it is something we just have to do sometimes.

What happened to your humidity level during the spike?

That is so exciting isn't it..I have some RIR hatching 28-29 my first, my hubby been building my coupe and run he has done a good job, actually two coups in one..space for hens laying and space for just roosters and new babies of the future and area if a sick one..a divide run to keep roosters separate and so forth..haven't even got my first batch hatched and getting the fever to do another.

Anyway good luck with yours and hope you a happy mommie.
