Hi Rowly:
Hope you and your critters are surviving the winter OK. I have had a serious amount of predation the last few days and I haven't been able to identify the predator. It's a long story, so I won't bore you with it unless you need it! In any event, my ducks have begun to lay and I expect you will see similar behavior sooner than you might expect. I will not be using my incubators anymore and since you said you were going to try incubation, I thought I would offer them to you if you haven't already purchased them. They (2) are in excellent condition and have the automatic egg turners and turbo fans. I paid about $130 ea for them and you can have the pair for $40 plus shipping if you are interested. The offer is also good for anyone else should you not need them. Happy New Year and I hope you have an early thaw!
Jim
