    Incubator lockdown question

    Hi sorry to bump this thread but it seemed in neccesary to start a new one. I messed up my timeline resulting in lockdown on early day 20, possibly 19. I had an automatic turner up til then. I suppose it is what it is now. what you you folks think?

    Quail Nesting Habits..?

    You did nothing wrong. It was a legitimate question. It’s up to you to interpret your local laws. Don’t mind the judicial input

    Roundworm- Need help finding Cure product

    Better to put on side of house or out back?
