Wahoo!

did you put a battery in it?

I checked the one that came with it and hadn't realized that there was a plastic film over it to protect it. It was also in backwards, I guess to keep it from running dead in the warehouse. Peeled off the plastic and stuck it in the proper way, and it works like a charm! I'm so glad I have a digital one now. The therms that came with the bator fluctuate wildly and are almost always inaccurate.

Ok red, which ones are you setting? You are setting eggs, and, have a broody. Go Red! You should see your little ones I hatched from you. I have fallen in love with the second one that hatched. It doesn't have as much a fluffy face as the first, but there is a lot of blue coming out on it, and the back is dark brown. This is going to be a pretty bird, and it's looking girly.

I set the Icelandic eggs tonight. Seven of them! My broody is still on her eggs............this is day 5, I believe. I need to get out there and see if I can count how many eggs Ms. Hoarder has under her, but I'm pretty sure it's seven or eight. I'm not counting the four bad ones I took from her, because they were obviously cracked from the cold and leaking when she started brooding.

I'm glad your babies are doing so well, Cynthia! <3 I couldn't believe how cute they were in the pictures you took. Those Icelandics sure make some pretty babies.

Hok - was that the dryer I heard in the background? I have my bators in the laundry room, I'm used to that sound! I wish (there I go again) I could see that well when I candle. What kind of candler is that?
