I agree patience is key in this hobby and lessons learned are the best teacher how ever when you have so many experienced people who have been thru the failures and are willing to help why not take advantage of the opportunity to succeed by asking questions. I don't stress as much as I did at first like when you find that first clutch has arrived and you handle the eggs like they are nitro glycerin lol you learn and when the next clutch comes you know they are more resilliant than you thought and each success breeds confidence. I learned a lot from this first season and three successful clutches. I won't be nervous and feel like I'm going to fail like the first time. And I will gladly pass on any info I have attained to anyone who asks, and I think its so cool when I see people asking for help with the same questions I had last year. This forum is great and I feel like part of the family here and enjoy watching the new people join in and succeed.
