It stinks as in you hate the way it operates? Or there is a funky smell kind of stinks?

 

[what was i thinking]

the way it operates... i had many other words i was going to use, but thought better of it.

i didn't even think that stink could mean something bad. sorry, no, it is all good soo far.

noo no you stopped turning at the right day!

i'm just saying now wait until they hatch

*meaning try not to touch the incy until they hatch this is when people start getting anxious hehe---i know i do!* LOL! Ofcourse as long as your temp and humidity stay good that is

the "i stop turning on saturday"

are when my quail eggs are 14 days incubated
