OH YEAH.
That's the beauty of having little wingnuts-I mean boys.

O M G the picture in my mind of them "rappelling " off/out of the barn door to counter weight the bales of hay to go up to the loft.....

I think it would be great! Just make sure it is strong no stretch rope, not bungee.

If I lived next door to Rachael I would volunteer for the rappelling part! Running up the stairs not so much.

Magic fly 12 egg incubator hatch-dont recommend. My mother likes her digital farm innovators one, but I can't bring myself to spend that much yet. She was given it by a co-worker who needed to stop hatching so she didn't pay $200. She's keeping it and has had very good success with it. I should just use my silkie bators.

Thank you! Will make sure to cross that one off the list. There are some many out there. And some are ridiculously priced.

I have an Incu-view and i like it. I researched incubators and found a thread on BYC on Incu-view that was over a thousand pages long. I read enough of it to see that they had excellent customer service and i bought one.

I got the deluxe so i could get the egg candler, but it doesn't work on brown eggs.

Yeah, you are better off buying one of the new, high powered (chargeable please?) Led flashlights for a candler. They won't do good marans eggs, and sometimes struggle with super blue eggs, but they can blast through brown just enough for fertility checks. Hard to see after though, lol.

I have a hovabator 1588. Forced air. It's a fantastic incubator. I usually had 100% hatch rates. I still prefer the Broody Hen though over incubator.
