    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Each few days I notice that more eggs are turning yellow and begin to collapse. Out of 24 eggs half of them have done that. The temp is dailed in at 83-85 and their seem more then enough moisture in the medium. Any idea why this is happening.

I built an incubator the other night of of melaite and wire 2 60watt blubs in the top and bottom. I have a helix dbs 1000 dial in at 84 degree. I am thinking of taking the eggs out of the heborvator sytraform think that I am using now and putiing them into my incubtor. Just not sure of the movment of the trays from one to another would harm the good eggs.

As easly and in expensive as it is to build a real inbubator I dont know why anyonw would by the sytrform boxes. The only real cost os the helix conrtol at 130.00 and the rest is like 50 for the cabinet and 10.00 for the light bulb sockets. I bit of silican sealent to save the air from escaping and your done
