need Water Wigglers...

[lotzahenz]

Thanks so much for the info. My last hatch was so bad I had given up on it. Now I'm ready to try again.

Thanks chickygirl2! I finally found a wiggler...at Dollar General! They didn't have them at my local one so I checked the Dollar General in the closest big city and they had them!
Woo-hoo!

Nothing can stop me now!

I got the water wigglers and put one in the bator with 8 eggs. It has been in there 48 hours now and the air temp is 100.6 and the probe temp is 99.1. Is that what I should be seeing?

 

[needmorechickens!]

That's about perfect!

I'll let you know what did did in place of the water wigglers (b/c I couldn't find them either - Walmart was out until xmas time she said). We just used a little ziplock sandwich bag with water in it about 1/3 full, folded it in half and put the metal sensor in between that. It worked fine and I got about 10 out of 15 to hatch for my first try so it worked great.

I made a wiggler out of a rubber glove. Put the probe down the middle finger, which sets atop the other two fingers. I secured the middle of the glove with two bread ties.
I WOULD have had a real wiggler, but I made DD shovel out her room & throw all the kiddie toys away!
