Tiny homemade Incubator

[Happydaze]

I built a crude little incubator out of scraps and it was a Small Success. It was made with a styrofoam box from a Pharmacy an old file stand, bulb thing from my daughter's old lamp, lids from canning jars for vents, glass from an 8x10 picture frame, tape,foil and glue. It measures maybe 10"x24". I collected eggs from my hens as soon as I could because their house is uninsulated with just a heating lamp and the weather has been -34ish. Anyway out of 12 eggs....I had two hatch! lol. Here are some pics!

AHHHHHH. I thought I started my own thread! Now I can't remove it! Plus I did it wrong! Just Great.

No problem - looks like you posted links to photos that are still on your computer. First you'll need to upload them to BYC and then it will work a lot better

If you look at the blue menu bar, you will see a link to "uploads". Click on that, upload your pics, and once uploaded, BYC will provide you a URL to your photo. You can then copy and paste the URL back into your original post and then we'll all be able to see the pics (which I'm really looking forward to seeing, by the way - sounds creative and interesting, both of which I like).
