Oh i totally understand, i have a handy cam that has 30 minutes taped on it and i got it back in the early 2000's and that is all it has been used cause i couldn't figure it out back then, maybe i could now if i had a real good reason now that i am a bit more computerized

Haha well Aaron got a new computer so hopefully when I see him tomorrow I can make him a BYC account so he can update everyone on Taco.

I got action in the bator but it's the guinea eggs that are zipping. :/ I shoulda known those little buggars would be out first. Nothing yet for the peas. I noticed that the humidity was dropping below 40 last night, so I had to rush and put some warm water in the bator to bring the humidity up before hatching begins, which is scheduled on Wednesday. I noticed that 1 guinea egg was zipping and I hope that I didn't shrink wrap it. If I did, I have 11 more guinea eggs that I hope are ok. We'll see what has hatched later one. Looks like 3 guinea eggs were zipping nicely.

Honstly i do not think a drop in humidity is gonna hurt a zipping guinea, i pull left over hatching eggs from guinea nest all the time when the guineas leave them behind and they can be piped zipped and half hached exposed to the open air and i still get them to hatch in the bator.. to me they shrink wrap when they have piped and have taken to long to get out of the shell.. hence they dry out.. Just sayen
Sending good hatching vibs

These are your first Pea eggs right?

Oh, thank you for that information. I was worried.

These are the 1st pea eggs for this year. This is only my 2nd year hatching pea eggs in the incubator and only my 2nd year using an incubator, so I am still a newbie. My broody critters have always hatched anything that I needed for the last 10 years. I finally broke down and got an incubator last year because I wanted to see what all the fuss was about in having an incubator (and because I was too cheap to buy an incubator ).

Thank you for the good vibes.

I sold 10 pea eggs this past weekend because I was afraid of how long they would set out before I could put them in the next batch of eggs. The girls have started laying again this week, so whatever they lay in the next week will go in the incubator. So that will be my 3rd time trying pea eggs. I'm still learning so much from you all.
