That is terrible! Especially because you want to see her. My issue with my ex-in-laws was that they never cared to see their grandkids. And that really hurt my feelings. Now, it's like I don't care anymore (since the divorce). But I wish they had wanted to.

@WVduckchick sorry to hear that. As a single mom I hate seeing a parent that can't put their child(ren) before their problems with their exes. I won't say I haven't had my moments where I've wanted to push a certain "dad" off the end of the earth.....lol But all of my decisions from the first day have always been what's best for my son, even when it meant I had to swallow my pride and let things go so that he could have some type of relationship with his father. I absolutely can't stand a woman that (without good cause) keeps a child from a their father (or visa versa) as "punishment". My son's dad has a son three years older than ours and she (the other momma) is a witch with a capitol B and constantly uses their son as a pawn to hurt the ex. Makes me sick. He isn't dad of the year by far, but he's ok.

@RubyNala97 My son has been very lucky in that aspect. His paternal grandmother and uncle actually saw and met my son way before his father. She loves him to death and treats him so good and he loves her to death. (She's basically the reason Cade doesn't have a problem going with his dad on dad's day to have him.) Her and I did come to blows early on cause being a mom she did step in where she shouldn't have, but after a small confrontation, she stepped back, let us handle our business and she's been awesome ever since. It's hard for me not having my mom here to see my son with, but I am very grateful that she is the grandma she is and he's gotten the chance to have a grandma.

For the most part the ex and I get along, not always easy, but our son comes first. The failure of our relationship was our doing, not his.

I am going to shut down the GQF incubator tonight and move my turkeys to the Polyhatch.  25-45 watts vs 250 is one reason...but also just to see how it does.

It's very simple, yet very clever.  The egg turner base is a perforated aluminum plate that rolls back and forth, driven by a cam.  The eggs would just move back and forth as well, except they use divider rods to hold the eggs back.  So the eggs roll against the rods, and rotate 90 degrees every 30 minutes.  The tray moves very slowly.

And the tray is reversible...it has one set of motor guides for large eggs, and another for small eggs, to ensure that 90 degrees is always attained.

Double insulated top window is nice as well.  And it has a tiny LED inside so that it's not pitch black.

The water trays are readily filled by lifting the aluminum plates that cover the gaps at the end of the tray.  The base has a built in water guide on each end to direct water into the channels.

Sounds like a nifty design. Is it old? Do they still make them?

I went through divorce when my son was 8, but his father and I have always gotten along, and still do. We always put our son first. I've been trying to use that example with my step-children because they see how well my son adapted, but you know how it goes. You can show a horse to water...
Sorry that your ex is such a douche. Its always the kids that get the worst end of that deal, but adults should know better! Some just don't.
