Welcome to my pond - Swim, wade, or sit on the bank

I have a few in the incubator and still some under broodies. Send her to the Hands On thread... many of us monitor it.

Awesome idea!

We are at a steady 27% here. Still gotta add water.

You are way better than me, I have been from 20-60 this hatch, The weather varies so much here in the banana belt this time of year...

I assume when the coconuts fall out of the trees and they split open on the rocks all that water/juice increases the humidity.

Yeah, I remember that. So far I haven't had a lot of success with "treat bribery" in their coop... my little SBs are totally the opposite. They love me - well, they love meal worms, but that's close enough and I'll take it!

Cree's SB's are sweet! Studly is my fave... he's not to thrilled with me though...

Are any of you part of a hatch along right now? The gal who just bought hatching eggs from me has a cheap-o incubator and hasn't had a lot of success with it. In the brief time I had, I told her to get a separate hygrometer/thermometer. But, I think I'd like to text her a link to a hatchalong since you learn a ton (but only if peeps that know their stuff are on).

I quit doing HAL's... I'm claustrophobic...

For some reason my trouble drake Memphis does not bother Sofie at all..but the other two can't even move or he goes on the attack. He is fine with his brother and sister too. Am I going to have to separate them forever??? Or is there still hope. He's still young a little over 4 months now.

Give him time, he's still young yet... had many a young drake that was nicknamed 'AH' who grew out of it, lol...

Next time on your phone, try turning it sideways. Seriously.

Yup...

Been bonkers around here all evening so I've not kept up, ugh...But I'm wore out and going to bed.
You all have a marvelous night and hopefully I'll catch up with you tomorrow.

Hah - I can see that - terrible, just terrible.
We comfort one another with the words, "Well, at least it's a dry heat."

We could say that here, but we would be lying..

Who could ever be snippy with you! Your the sweet choco-holic bubbles!
How'd you get the bubbles Nick name anyway? That must have been before my time.

I think it largely depends upon the size and chaos of the HAL as to whether I can hang in with it...but they're definitely where I met some of my favorite BYC'ers! I have to stay away from them now. They tempt me too much...and I am a weakling - a fluffy ball of adorable cuteness weakling.

News flash, i almost forgot. For those that remember our dear friend Turk, she's gonna be a mommy!!

Bubbles popped and there wasn't enough dish soap to save her.

HALs are evil. I end up setting way too many eggs because of them.
