Maplehurst Neighbors Build Tiny Homes In Maple Tree
The speaker notes Maplehurst residents return for the season and enjoy a cheerful welcome. A(debug) playful tale follows of tiny couple and their children constructing a home within a maple tree using twigs. The couple rises with dawn and completes the humble dwelling by night, with music and song marking the day.
Use Extra Moisture in the Incubator
Moisture, temperature, and ventilation are key to incubator success. Dry air causes high egg evaporation, but adding water pans or moisture pads near the tray improves hatches. Use a wet bulb thermometer to maintain about 60 percent humidity and sprinkle the incubator floor several times daily.
