The price on eBay seems very reasonable provided it doesn't go too much higher. This would be a great buy for those of you who already have the turners. I see that his beautiful cabinets need the buyer to provide their own which for me would increase the price. They are beautiful though. Bet I could sneak one into my husband's computer room easily. He'd just think it was another piece of furniture.

Yes and I just so happen to have THREE turners.

One is still in the box and it's my back up if the others fail...

Aha! Well then, good luck to you AND Cloverleaf since it appears you are both bidding! You should maybe contact him and tell him you'll both buy one if he gives you a good price. Then you both win. Free shipping on that item too, right? Such a deal!

BTW, I've always just bought my turners directly from GQF.

No, I'm not bidding on it. I'm going to hold out for a THREE rack cabinet style one...but the trunk one is pretty....and tempting...

Sounds like CR is out of the hospital. Called, but his name was not on the registry. Hopefully he's home and resting comfortably! Get better soon Rustler, were thinking of you!

At least in the dark you really don't have to chase them.
ilusive Illia..hope she is OK, but she had a heck of a waite in customs with the last pup, so maybe it has happened again!

RFF: what is the heat source in the incubators, just a light bulb ?

FYI: I made a cabinet incubator using part of one of those big boxes I am using in my garden, remember those ?
DH built a door, I bought the same egg turners at the feed store, and went on line, and for $75 (I think) I ordered the replacement element & thermostst for a GQF brooder.
DH screwed it to the top and presto!
A GQF hatching incubator.
I will post a link...

I'm back online!

a power surge yesterday took out our router and it took me till just now to find out what the problem was.

I'm sad to hear about CR, but so thankful he was not too proud or stubborn to ask his DD to drive him to the hospital to be checked out. Wish my dad would have 10 yrs ago...
I'm happy to see he is in good spirits and planning to bust out of there.

RFF - glad someone is taking care of the big kitty.

Everyone - Love all the incubator pics, but I am getting very jealous .... then I remembered I have a mini fridge in my garage...

CL - We hake 2 bikes in our garage that haven't been ridden in nearly a decade because I'm just a big chicken (I prefer bicycles - they don't usually go as fast). I couldn't sit behind someone on one of those and go around a corner without fearing my knee would be removed... DH has a great big touring BMW that he has taken to almost every continent (missing Antarctica and South America). Mine is a bit smaller, and I've never ridden it

DH's friend borrowed it and hit a deer in Oregon near Mt. Hood - thank God for leathers, though they did not help the deer any! I think we need to sell the bikes and maybe get some incubators or goats and a barn, or a vacation that involves airplanes and SCUBA gear. DH has not been as interested in his bike since he was riding across the 520 floating bridge in the R lane when a lady in a Lexes decided to switch into his lane, and the is no shoulder there. He had to step on the gas to try and avoid being hit, and ended up under the car in front of him.

I'm off to bed soon - very sore. Cleaned out the brooder, but the snow is too deep to go to walk to the compst pile,so I took the crud to the curb. The last 30' of our driveway was all black ice, I slipped and fell on my back, smacking my head on the asphalt and dumping the bag of chicken poop on me, then got up and fell again, this time forward, twisting my knee and ankle and smacking my elbow on the ground. I scooped up the contents of the bag, crawled the rest of the way to the curb on my hands and knees, then crawled back to where I can stand. Now my shoulders, hip, elbow and knee really hurt, my neck is stiff and my head and bum hurt a little. I know my extra padding are what kept my bum from getting too sore, but I'm wondering why my head is not as bad as I would have expected? Must be all that air...

Off to find some pain pills ...

(Oh, DD liked the GF bread we made, and her skin is already much improved!)


If anyone visits CR, send him my best wishes! We need him back here!
