You have EMUs?! - Isn't that a lot of work and food and… ?

Sure do!

Hillbilly do you never get your tags?
just curious because every time anyone has tagged you that I've seen you never show up.

Hi Shaw, i do get a notification when i am tagged. However, i do get too many notifications:

<- that is just one day
so i tend to miss a lot! My notification settings are messed up completely and i don't really know about what i should have notified myself and what not…

There is a way to turn off the reaction notifications apparently. So you just get notified for reply/quoted things. Might cut your notifications back a fair way

I got a notification once, 14 times if you count the ones from the IRS.

I think i have decided on one model from Amazon (click on the picture for details):

With the Capacity for 18 eggs (i assume that is xicken eggs) it is not too large and not too small for my current needs. I especially do like the egg turner with its simplistic mechanics! I have heart too often that some small parts break in those swinging tray turners, rendering the whole thing useless. I don't think this one will break and it can be adjusted for different sizes of eggs - not that i need that for now, but who knows maybe i can find some donkey-eggs…
@Magnolia Ducks and @Pyxis i do not trust any uncalibrated electronic temperature sensor, to my experience they're all off by 1-2 degrees, what kind of thermometers do you use to calibrate your incubators?

Can you huddle with an Emu?
Or will it eat you right away? - I mean those are large (and scary) birds.

Those notifications are so scary! And why does the IRS use call centers in India?

Ooops! I wasn't aware that you are incubating - what? For sure no dux! Are you incubating Turkey eggs? - So which kind of thermometer are you using to calibrate your 'bator?

It seems i am following too many forums, i am swamped with alerts like »New User 4711 has started a thread called "Help Please!"«
Guess i need to turn that off or drop some forums from the "watch"-list.
