Incubators. I don't need one of those big ones. I have had and still do , a 1588, with my hands turning. I've had real good hatches in it. Temp wise, I have needed to lay bubble wrap over the window if the temp waivers lower, or put a normal light bulb lamp over it if it's lower. Usually the bubble wrap laid loosely over the window does the trick. I still use it as a hatcher because I got bit by the bug and bought a rcom 20 a few months ago. With that, it's like a no brainer. You can set the temp and humidity, the eggs turn, and you can turn off the turner if you hatch in it. Best of all is the big clear window, and it's a double wall window, so the temps are real stable. I had to adjust the temp a bit , meaning it says 100.5, and the temp inside is 99.9, but it stays there and doesn't move. And if you open it, it reheats right away. And it plays a little song when it turns the eggs. But I still like my 1588, and use it. The 1588 was my 4th bator, and it was the best. I've never used egg turners. And I use the rcom turner because it's the floor that actually moves back and forth.

Have fun with the 1588, let me know when you set it up!

LOL when we all started going after blue laced red wyandotte eggs and were attacking the auctions someone started joking refering to us as the sharks, then to steal an auction from someone else in the last few seconds is called sniping an auction. So myself and the others became the shark snipers we'd show up and everyone else would roll there eyes and say "Oh the sharks are here again...

"

we're egg-a-holics!

Thank you! That was driving me crazy trying to figure it out! Shark sniper huh? Well I will watch out for you! I have done a bit of sniping myself LOL. So, did you get what you wanted with the BLRW?

I have some gorgeous ones but can't figure out who is Roo or pullet and I am getting cross eyed staring at them. Combs and wattles don't seem to help my judgement and either do tails, feet ect... I just can't figure out who is who except for two that are huge and have to be roos!

Happy Bday Brindle and Sem...

My count as of now is 25 lil chickies! Still have a few stragglers that actually want to wait until their hatch date...

My mind is still at a loss...I have quite a few chipmunk looking chicks with leg feathering...1 yellow OE, 9 Light Brahmas, 1 Lavender Ameraucauna, 2 Mottled cochins, 2 MCs...I am usually not this chick dumb....just stumped on the chipmunks...
