I wonder if that's why it's called a Hova-Bator? Cause you "Hova" over it all day and night?I've never had a dog with epilepsy, knock on wood, I would be scared to death. But then again I'm a BIG worrier. Ever since I set these eggs I've been a nervous wreck. Now that I've locked down I'm even more worried, when hatch day comes I'll be hovering over the bator waiting, with shaking hands, to help the first pipper, lol. I'll be on the edge of a nervous breakdown, lol. I hope your dog is ok though. I have 3 pit bulls that are all like my children, I couldn't live without them.
