You should be able to hover your over each of the buttons and it should pop up a description of what the button is for. When you hover over this one, it says "Spoiler - Hidden text which users can opt to see".
Its the 3rd button on the bottom row in the pic below. Of course, yours may be in a different position, but it should still be between the paper clip and the "</>" buttons.
I've always called it a "callout" bubble.


If you don't see those buttons, look all the way to the right at the top of the reply box and you'll see the word "More" with a down arrow/triangle. Click the triangle and you'll see the buttons like the picture above.

Finally found it. Did full page editor, and then More. Thanks. There's so many options that I'm not aware of!!!

Initial results indicate success! 37.8 in the turner, 37.2 in the hatcher. Much lower airflow in the hatcher trays, and much easier to raise humidity. It's at 58% with just a small water pan.

I will make a frame covered with cheesecloth or burlap to separate the hatcher from the incubator trays, and I'll find a way to do low resistance filtration for the air intake as well.

For anyone who wants to build a 200+ egg incubator, this design, which is now much more like a GQF rather than a Farm Master, is a good basis for your own design.

Ok, so someone tell me what is going on with my hens!! When I got the first coop finished and moved the first ones out I put a couple eggs in the nesting boxes to show them that's what they were for. After a couple days they started laying and used the box (notice I said box....because they would only use one) beautifully. About three weeks or so later I took the 3 silkies from my sister. I was worried about how this was going to affect the flow especially since I had to chase the news one out and put them on the roost the first couple of nights so they wouldn't lay in the boxes. It took them quite a few days before the resumed laying, but when they did they started using the box (the same ONE box). Then a couple weeks ago I would find a couple in the box and one here and one there. I figured it was because the ONE box was occupied and they are too stubborn to use another. In this last week I have had to play hide and seek to find the eggs and seldom do I have any in the box anymore. This afternoon when I opened the door I had three eggs sitting in the corner in front of my door. Nothing in the box.

I cleaned out the boxes and put fresh bedding in them but that hasn't mattered. So why?? Why have they decided to hide them all around the coop??
