I have been to Harstine Island it is truly a beautiful place. I grew up on Vashon Island and I still miss the ferry rides, and the smell of the beaches, and water.


We are going to do in the rest of the meaties in the morning. We still have 14 birds to send to freezer camp. If anyone has time, you are welcome to come by and check out what it takes to process a bird or two. Just PM me and I will let you know where to come. It will be just DH and myself tomorrow. I don't think "The Boy"can make it in the am.

This is what I found when I went to get into bed.

It would be so bad if I didn't think that he is going to growl really

at me when I go to move him. He doesn't like to be messed with when he is asleep.

At least he won't bite.

I'll just live vicariously through the two of you since my husband will lock me in the coop if I do anything like that right now! However, if my rooster (Zeus) decided to go the natural route and any of my girls go broody who am I to mess with nature, right?

102? I thought they were supposed to be at 99.5? Um did I screw up. My eggs have been at that temp for 1 day....

So am I in trouble. THe incubator instructions say 99.5 and it is a still air. SHould I turn it up or is it to late?

If you are absolutely sure it is still air, I do believe they run at a higher temp, since the air is not circulating. Is it an LG? I have 2 LG's, both bought as still-airs. I bought Fan's for both, and when we installed the fan's, there was a sticker to put on the incubator that said to run it at 99.5. Are you reading the actual incubator instructions, or is it possible they are the fan instructions?

A day or two being slightly off does not make for a case of panic....so deep breath!!!!
