LOL right!?! Dont need a jurassic world incident
Haven't seen this specific article but that's actually how this conversation started! If you go back a bit someone mentioned how they changed the genes in a chicken embryo to make a snout instead of beak and then Lozuufy mentioned how a few years ago someone made chickens have longer tails and if you combined them then you'd have a dino chicken and i thought why not a dino emu lol

In that article they mention using the emu just as you were thinking about. They also changed the genes in the chicken to trick the tail into growing. Strange stuff.

Thanks ronott, I had already done everything you suggested. I just couldn't go to sleep until the temp looked good. It's my first hatch, so I'm probably overly concerned. The temp and humidity both look good, so I should get a good night's sleep tonight!

You might still get up and check in the middle of the night!

LOVE my Brinseas! Yes plural. I have the mini, the Eco 20 and just bought the Eco 40. They are good incubators.

I want either the 40, or the small cabinet!

I know!

Incubating is very exciting and stressful at the same time. I have gotten up and checked the settings in the middle of the night many times.
