WET DOWN A DISPOSEABLE DIAPER OR FEMINE NAPKIN AND PLACE IT IN YOUR HATCHER... HOT WATER WORKS BEST.

yep, works. Just make sure the adhesive is stuck to the floor or wall, you don't want a chick stuck to it lol. I had to stick one to the top over the fan grate because the air was shrink wrapping the chicks as it was blowing directly down on them, it's a Brinsea Eco 20.
 
Up North here in Indiana my quail seem to think its spring.The little quail are getting frisky chasing each other calling out & laying a few eggs.Wonderful time of year seeing plants green again.
The weather has me as happy as they are except I am to old to chase the gals.

I got a new bator, turner, & just ordered the quail egg rails today. I also add 25 more ducklings to the 12 ducklings I already got Friday when I picked up 24 chicks.

Now who has the best deal on Coturnix eggs? I need 120 of them.
 
I love going out to the quail hutch and having the little girls come out to greet me with their freindly little chirps! I know when they really want something because all 10 hens and the golden roo run up to the front of the hutch and look desperately at me approaching! They are so adorable. Hadn't gotten any more freaky eggs, i guess one skin egg is all I was allowed this month lol
 
I've been keeping the light on like motel 6 except I turn it off at 10 pm.You wouldn't belive the ruskus they make crowing after the lights go out. wondering if they asking Did you pay the light bill?

7 Little bobwhite bumblebees buzzing around in my brooder. One loner egg still left in the incubator. Today is day 24. They all hatched after I went to bed last night.

JEN DONT GIVE UP ON POKEY YET--- HE MAY JUST BE THE VILLAGE IDIOT AND DIDNT PAY ATTENTION WHEN THE HATCH ALARM WENT OFF. RARE BUT I DO GET AN OCCAISIONAL SLOW POKE IN THE BOBS..
 
Awww village idiot lol
I lost another chick. I think it was the last idiot too, I had a few shrimps this time, they came from the tiny first eggs I had. the rest are robust, eating machines
