She said/He said Who's right? Who's wrong? No one!

That's exciting! Wonder if she will get 100% too?

Post a pic of her when you get a chance please. I was so happy that mine hatched, then lost 4 of the 5 to my burned out bulb

Are you using the cooling feature? Mine has it too, but I didn't use it. I have read that its more beneficial to ducks, but haven't read the article relating to chickens. I'll look that up.

I was thinking about getting a pic...lol If she's still on them tomorrow, I'll get one.

Chicken Canoe shared this link on another thread and I thought it was an interesting read. It's in answer to a question about eggs cooling off and what they can survive: http://www.brinsea.com/Articles/Advice/PowerOff.aspx

And yes, it's from Brinsea...lol

Best comment of the day!!

Well, I hadn't posted any pics of them for a while. They should be laying any time now, I hope. The boys are still fraidy cats though.

Let me explain something, 8 years ago I got pregnant and aquired what is known as "pregnancy brain" -forgetfulness, easily confused, generally mixing up info.... Unfortunetly for me, it didn't leave when my kid came out and is still in full effect. Add that to talking to 100 different people on here and I generally can not remember who said what, who has what with the exception of you...and well...that's self explanitory and maybe two or three others.  True story!

is that what its called? I figured it was 2 kids, after school activities, pets, the difficult job of a SHAM, new to chickens, 4H projects, 4H community service,15 projects/repairs going on simultaneously, trying to prepare for winter and trying to keep up on this thread. I still have another 200+ quotes to read.
