How many went into lockdown? I can't remember.
 
Yea, man, pass me some...


Hey now!

I do appreciate the help (and maybe even a little concern for my eggies?) So the 20 actually holds 24 eggs? But I'm kinda lazy for the manual model.... Yep, I sound like an addict trying to quit huh?

This was not a good day for me to finish my blood pressure medication!
Pssst... you wanna buy some Lisonopril?

The auto-turn adds a good bit to the cost. My 20 will hold 24 hybrid eggs, 28 Polish, or 36 bantams
 
LOL. Thanks!! I was (and still am ) pysched at having a 100% lockdown rate.  Even with the set rate and only loosing one I'm happy. Definitely my best to date. The only thing that can top it is a 100% set rate, and one day I will have that too....lol

Sounds like yours is going well too!! Those are great numbers.  I hope you have just as good!!  How many do you have in there??


You definitely did well! I have 11 after tossing clears. He gave me a dozen and 4 extra, but honestly the "extra," ones I separated in the incubator only because they were in a separate carton, and not a single one was fertile. I'm OK with that though, I paid $50 for 12- and im locking down 11. But hey you can't fertileize eggs that aren't, right? They either are or they're not fertile.

I didn't get any copper marans this weekend... Hubby says in the fall, besides I'd rather get eggs and hatch them myself

- I don't have time for another hatch before my boys come, could be sooner than later.

I'm thinking of my own crossing expirements now, hence why I was asking the other week what to cross for an EE... I wanted to do OE at some point too hence the copper marans.




My friend posted it today, we are next door to Boston so the accent spills over. Haha, hats exactly how we say car- "cah."

Close the door= "close tha dawh" hah there's this weird "H," on the end of a lot of words. Can't explain it.

Well, I'm supposed to be locking down Friday for Monday hatch with you, yes!  That is IF my bator cooperates.  I just started having temperature issues, so I am debating on buying a new bator today or making something to suffice for this hatch, and ordering something better for next time.  All I can find locally are Farm Innovators and Little Giants, and I'm not thrilled about any of them.  :barnie


But up until this point, mine was going pretty well also.  And same here with humidity a little low, and have started adding just a touch of water.  Air cells are plenty big, development looks good.  Had to work today, so I'm making stops on my way home to see what I can come up with.  :(


Aw man! Well you have Amy here for any help with an LG

I hear you though, it's like a gamble either way. I'm liking this old hovabator I have, it's forced air, and has been holding well. Honestly I've heard the horror stories of the styrofoam, but I've been happy so far (knock on wood) maybe you can check Craigslist?

Are your temps dropping? Or spiking?

I think the horror stories about styrofoam are more LG related. You don't hear much bad about Hovabators. I think LG just uses crappy components
