hard time waking up today, hope those birds do not mind waiting today,,,I hate driving in the rain with only 1 eye open
 
Hatching question:

I currently use auto turners and use a cooler bator as a hatcher.
If I were to try an entire incubation in a cooler, how often would I need to turn?
Reason for question: due to my schedule I could only do it about three times a day, but there are some days I'm gone over half the day (14 hours) how would I schedule that, and would it work?
 
just to let some of you know that are from the area,,,,,,on april 25 we will be going to shady maple for dinner then heading on over to the dragon.....

can haul straw, wheat or barley in small amounts,,(will be the small pick up truck).....that is a lot closer for some of you...

It is hubby's birthday and these are the plans he picked,,,I am certainly not going to argue.

as you know, my schedule can be just like that also. I try to turn atleast 2 times a day in the beginning, but after about day 10, some believe that you do not have to turn at all... I have had good hatches this way also, the belief is that after 10 days the chick moves around enough on it's own.....

I forgot the other bad news that we got on Monday while burying Belle.
I posted that my great grandfather wasn't feeling well and I was helping out the day my turkeys came in. Well... He was feeling weak because of low blood count. He's bleeding internally. The cancer in his prostate wasn't caught in time and the cancer has spread all through his body. He can't come home because of the rate of the internal bleeding. I told my mom that is is going to be a bad year. Horse, my pap is terminal with cancer, my great grandfather, my mom was diagnosed with severe arthritis in her shoulder, back and arm - doc says crippled within a few years and my gram has severe arthritis in her legs. Yeah, 2014 is not a healthy year for my family.

I am really hoping things don't keep going this way.
