I was teasing! Sheesh. 
I have a sardonic sense of humor. It passes over my own head sometimes.

Yeah, I've been googling too.redtailgal said:
I've got 12 of them in the bator and 2 of them under a broody chicken. The broody chicken will hatch hers a week before those in the bator.
Broody chicken has big duck eggs, 2 mystery eggs, 4 guinea eggs and 3 chicken eggs under her. (Don't worry I spaced the adding of the chicken/ guinea eggs so that they hatch at the same time).
I think I have an EE hen thinking about going broody now too...gonna keep an eye on her. If she truly is then she'll get a full clutch of chicken eggs.
I also plan to add chicken eggs to the bator after it hatches the duck eggs.

A goose?
lol, geese are bad news around here. My oldest son has this special knack for infuriating geese.......All he has to do is walk by them and it is ON.
He looks so cute running away from them like that. (and with good reason, they are VICIOUS with him)
ETA: sigh. my floors are not getting mopped.

Oh man! Crud! My main computer (laptop) just crashed. It won't even boot 
So, I'm relegated to my mini laptop and my phone 
And daggone it! I have a new children's book on that laptop that isn't backed up onto a zip drive

unlug the computer and hold down the power button for a minimum of 60 seconds.
Then try to re-boot.
ETA: try unplugging it. Unlugging is best left to the pros. lol

Yeah, I've tried that trick twice now and it doesn't work. I've always worked with computers and I'm very good with them...so I'm pretty sure that it's gone.
I'm so stupid for not backing up that book! It was a really special new project I'm working on

Emily, maybe you should try a humidity meter for the eggs. Might be better instead of going by "feel" or something like that. I know you can get them for cheap, and they're pretty accurate too: have one on the fridge now that tells how humid the air is and that.
