Oh no storm coming and eggs in bator

[pdsavage]

If power goes out ill sit em wraped in cloth close to the wood burner.I will also use that hot water in bottle idea (great idea by the way).
Good thing I save lots of glass jars.

Same thing here. Have eggs in bator since Friday and lots of ice expected any day now. Hope the power won't go off.

I am right along with the rest of you guys - We may get sleet, freezing rain and up to 10 inches of snow!! I have bator eggs, ones hatching and chicks in the brooder. Hubby supposed to bring home small generator so if the electric goes out, I can protect the babies!!
Good luck to you guys.

The snow has started in Minnesota...we have about 4 inches down so far. It's blowing really bad as well. Good luck to everyone....hopefully no one goes without power for too long.

At Radio Shack, I got a converter that plugs into my cigarette lighter in my car. I think it cost me about $40. Works awesome! Has 3 plug ins.

See? I already have a generator...built by Ford!

Good idea, now for about $70-ish you can get a deep cycle marine battery that will power the inverter you have. Then you can charge that battery from your car while you are driving.

I am in NW Ohio and terrified we will be without power - I have 28 viable eggs due to go into lockdown Wednesday and the storm is supposed to hit tonight. I also have 13 parrots in the house and no power is a big problem since they really shouldn't go down below 50. I am going out after work to see about a small generator to keep a space heater and the bator going should it become necessary. I am afraid it is by the way it looks on the radar at work - I work at the county engineers and we have the highway road crews there - everyone is gearing up for up to 20 inches of snow and half an inch of ice starting tonight and going through Wednesday - plus blowing winds - I am not looking forward to this.........;.
