Yess.... giggle, guffaw, and laugh away. It was without a doubt the stupidest thing I've ever done.
The Nature's Spirit incubators are probaly idiot-proof except when used by exceptionally stupid idiots like me.
LOL... that's a funny story, when things like that happen.... I always blame it on the "NOT ENOUGH COFFEE YET."
No one should operate anything without first dosing up on good coffee!! I can see myself doing that too.... LOL
Re: Who is the Stupidest BP Breeder?
Okay I too won't rest if I don't get more info on the glued to an angry feline thing!
I've had my hands on those incubators Rapture at the Taylor, Michigan show and met Casey and Darla Hulse. Excellent folks (they shipped a rescue for me last year), very informative and friendly and those incubators are gorgeous! If you are talking to them ask about the new hatching substrate "HatchRite". I know last time I spoke to Casey he was recommending it especially for people new to incubating eggs.
I'd never hesitate to recommend the folks at Nature's Spirit or their animals or products. They are good people. :)

But seriously, they are da bomb!! YOu pull them out of the box(Excellantly packed too!) and they are rpactically ready to stuff with eggs! And the folks there are great! They'll answer questions and hold your hand through the buying and the set up!
I'm glad to have provided amusement. It's what makes me feel better when I do dumb stuff. I just think "Oh think how many people will get a laugh out of this one..." It works for everything except getting glued to the angry cat, which still hurt really bad even after I thought of that.

Very funny story Wolfy! I agree with your assessment of Natures Spirit incubator. Steady temps, easy setup.
BTW Wolfy, are you going to the reptile show at the Sundome in Tampa this weekend? If so, maybe we'll see you there.

When I clicked on the thread, I didn't even look to see who the original poster was. If I did, I would have known it was you. :)
