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

I had read where some turn the heat down once hatching begins. I wasn't sure about that but I did drop it a bit because of the humidity.
Some people do. I don't. With the little giant I have it's very hard to make minor adjustments w/o throwing off the whole thing. BUT my temps usually end up a degree or so lower because of being hands on regardless...lol
 
Doing good... playing ring around the merry pen with our new arrivals, lol... and getting ready to thin out a bunch of our non-keepers on Sat...

You??

Hangin' in there, Thanks.
Had a bit of a scare for a little bit today, though. The birds had been out foraging most of the day. About 4:00 I noticed they'd had enough & were all back in the run, except one hen. I counted beaks again...still came up short. I'd been outside most of the day myself, & hadn't heard any commotion, like something was after them, but I started looking around for possible clues, anyway. Wasn't long before I found the missing hen...locked up inside the live trap I have for coon & possum. She seemed perfectly at home. I'm surprised one of them hadn't found their way in there before now.
 
So the power went out earlier for about 4 hours. Thankfully my husband's jump pack was here and fully charged and it has reagular wall type outlets so I plugged the bator in and it ran like a charm, disaster effectively averted :)

You were due for something to go right, for a change. Glad you caught it.

Tell me about it, I'm just wondering if me catching it is going to make a difference in the hatch, lol. I candled earlier from inside the bator again and all are still alive and growing though. Hopefully no more will quit and what I have will hatch :fl
