Sounds cool, pics of your dinker?

My first season also! Lucky enough to have all 4 of my breedable females lay for me. 3 girls to my butter pastel male with the cinny being my first laying 4 huge eggs, spider girl laid 7 and fire girl finally laid last week with 5 big'uns. Also had a pied project going with my pastel het male paired to a het female who majorly slugged out on me and only laid 1 viable egg... If I hit on a pied I will be absolutely ecstatic but trying not to get my hopes up!

As for the 87 degree thing, I cant see them taking too much longer, surely only a couple of weeks more than the norm? I admire your patience with trying the slower method; exactly half way today thru my first clutch incubator and I'm already losing it!
