Maybe my eyes are too old?

Are you getting a good seal between the light and the egg or is light escaping out the sides?

 

[BantyChooks]

If you buy them than why couldn't you hatch them? You are a hatcher extraordinaire aren't you?

Because I won't wanna give them up...... And not really. I'd love to be eventually, but right now I am a novice.

If I remember correctly you did a great job last time.........and that's good enough for me.

Bunches of light escaping out the sides. Don't want to "single-purpose" the flashlight, though. You think a ring of electricians' tape would do the trick?

Ya might be able to rig something up with electricians tape or duct tape. I've got other flashlights so I was able to single-purpose the headlamp.

I just ordered a supposedly 3000 lumen flashlight from Amazon. It was cheap enough ($7 and zero shipping) that I don't mind single-purposing it. My Surefire lumamax has been my friend for too long.

I'll be able to use it for the next batch, but as things stand right now I'll be locking down this batch on Monday the 11th.

Good luck with your current batch.
