Aronia: yes hawks will kill chickens.

So its your turn to play God.

There are six and only six doses of a drug that nobody knows will work, nobody knows side effects and nobody knows if dosage is correct.

Who do you give it to?

New rule suggestion.

For every negative post we have to post one positive.

This used to be a happy place.

It's great to vent but also a great place to share happy stories.

I'd start by giving it to the man who was one of the world's authority's on Ebola, instead of three missionaries. Unfortunately, reading who received the drug, and who did not, it seems that the initial decision making process relied heavily on choosing individuals who were not African.

Sheik Umar Khan, the top Ebola expert in Sierra Leone, died after treating more than 100 patients. Samuel Brisbane, a top Liberian doctor has also died.

Meanwhile, back at the ranch in the midst of the epidemic, an isolation center was raided and dirty sheets and medical equipment were stolen. And then there is the problem that far too many people believe that the disease is caused by sorcery and that the doctors are the ones killing the patients.


Positive:

Fortunately, someone noticed that physicians are in incredibly short supply in Liberia, , and ZMapp has been given to three African physicians.

Try using a fan to get the moisture off. If it is that humid, do not mist them though. If the moisture does not dry off the eggs, bacteria can build up.

I mist eggs that are rare or hard to hatch, like shipped penedesenca eggs. For the daily cooling, I just change a setting on my Brinsea. I did use cooling and misting on some SG dorking eggs hatched in a Genesis 1588. It worked like a charm.

That's what my concern was with misting.
It's 73% humidity in the cellar now and outside has been ranging from 90-99 all week.

I have red tailed hawks by my house. Would they grab a chicken? I heard that someone near us had a hawk come into their barn and grab a chicken.

They certainly will. More of a rodent eater by choice but they're also one of the primary chicken predators in these parts.

hi

Enjoy your trip and the crawdads.

BTW - just checked if there were any messages from tech support, nope. What it does look like tho is that Murphy's Law is taking over and the glitches are multiplying. Wouldn't be surprised if don't wind up having to take us down completely to fix the mess.
