![]() The humidity would come from below (the environment). When the hen (duck or chicken) sits on eggs, she only provides heat from the top. Top heat from the incubator mimics the hen Make small adjustments to the temperature setting and check back in 10-15 minutes to see how it worked. If your incubator is manually adjusted, you need to be on your game here. If your digital incubator is working correctly, it should adjust automatically. This is the main reason for your continual checking of the incubator. Up until now, you have been providing all of the heat, now the eggs are putting off some heat as well. The eggs will start producing their own heatĪfter a few days, as the embryo grows inside the egg, it also starts to put off heat. You’ll need to open the incubator to check for that there is water in the bottom and you’ll need to turn the eggs, unless you have automatic turners.Īfter you open the incubator for your turning or humidity checks, check back very often to see that it has returned to the appropriate temperature.ĭon’t open the incubator during temperature checks, just look through the viewing window and see how the temperature looks on the thermometer. If the incubator is in a room that does not have a steady temperature, all of this checking is critical.Īs the room changes temperature for the day or night the incubator will need adjusted, as well.įor example: using the incubator in an uninsulated garage or on the porch will be more difficult (due to temperature fluctuations) than using an incubator in the house. You are looking at the thermometer you have placed under the window, but on top of the eggs. To check the incubator, you look into the observation window on the top. ![]() The reason for all of this checking is that you need to make sure that the temperature is holding. We are talking, check it 20+ times per day. Check the egg incubator frequently during the day Small turns make a big difference, I’m talking like a quarter turn (90 degrees) then come back and check the temp. Here’s the temperature adjustment on our still air incubator. This is the behavior that you are mimicking by angling the carton of hatching eggs.Ĭhange the angle of the hatching eggs once or twice a day, until you have enough of them for the incubator. What about the angle part? A chicken doesn’t angle her nest! True, she doesn’t but she does tend and turn the eggs even before setting. Hatching eggs should be stored at room temperature and on an angle.ĭo not put these eggs in the fridge, that’s not how a chicken would do it! Hatching eggs also need to be fresh, less than one week old. This layer will get removed by washing, don’t do it. The outside of the egg has a layer called the cuticle or bloom. Even if you are willing to wash off the dirt, still no. The eggs you choose for your incubator need to be perfect. Use fresh, fertile, unwashed eggs to hatch ![]() This is how the hen (duck or chicken) would do it, as well.īe sure to mark the start of incubation on your calendar, to eliminate confusion and ensure you are candling on the right days. Incubate one batch of eggs at a timeĪlso, start the incubator with all of the eggs you are going to use, do not add eggs as you go. The hatching needs for each bird differ slightly, so keep each incubator to one species of egg at a time. Have patience, you’ll get there! Incubate chicks at 100, waterfowl at 103īe sure you are setting your temperatures at the right level for the eggs you are hatching.Ĭhicken eggs need to incubate at 100 degrees for 21 days.ĭuck eggs need to incubate at 103 degrees for 28 days. ![]() If your incubator adjusts manually, this will take some fine tuning. You’ll want to do a “practice run” with your incubator to make sure that it is holding temperature and to get it set close to what you’ll need to incubate your eggs. Set up the incubator a day ahead of putting in the eggs You can see this one is dusty, we’ve had it for 5+ years and I just go it out of storage for the picture. The ruler on top of the incubator shows the size. ![]() Get an incubator with some size, like the square Styrofoam ones. I know there are some really cute little table top style incubators available to buy, resist the temptation. Large incubators will have a more stable temperature than a smaller incubator. ![]()

The LT offers two notable feature packages. Stepping up to the LT adds xenon headlights, rear privacy glass, a leather-wrapped shift knob, an eight-way power driver seat (with two-way lumbar adjustment), auxiliary rear-seat release levers and satellite radio. It does open the door to an expanded range of exterior colors and availability of all-wheel drive, however, so it's worth considering if you want the least expensive AWD model. It's pricier and doesn't add much besides rear floor mats, a spare tire, a tire jack and a digital compass. It's a built-to-order trim, however, so you're most likely going to see the next-level LS on dealer lots. The front-drive-only base L is well equipped, and it comes standard with 17-inch alloy wheels, automatic headlights, LED daytime running lights, a fuel-saving engine stop-start system, a rearview camera, heated mirrors, keyless entry and ignition, a driver information display, height-adjustable front seats, a tilt-and-telescoping steering wheel, Chevrolet's Teen Driver watchdog modes, Bluetooth, OnStar (with 4G LTE connectivity and Wi-Fi hotspot), a 7-inch touchscreen and a six-speaker audio system with a USB port, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Until we have a better understanding of the features offered in conjunction with the selection of the diesel and 2.0-liter engines, the following trim breakdown applies solely to the 1.5-liter engine. The optional engines won't be offered until later in the model year. The 1.5-liter engine is the only engine available now. Also optional is a fuel-efficient 1.6-liter diesel (137 hp, 240 lb-ft) mated to a six-speed automatic. A more powerful turbocharged 2.0-liter engine (252 hp, 260 lb-ft) is optional and comes standard with a nine-speed automatic transmission. The standard engine is a turbocharged 1.5-liter four-cylinder (170 horsepower, 203 pound-feet of torque) matched to a six-speed automatic transmission. Three engines are offered on the Equinox. Notably, we picked the 2018 Chevrolet Equinox as one of Edmunds' Best Small SUVs for 2018. If you can look past its small cargo area, you'll be rewarded with a comfortable ride, roomy cabin and one of the best touchscreen systems in the business. The Equinox is not the most exciting compact crossover to drive, but it is one of the best all-rounders in the class. ![]() Tech features are also abundant, with every Equinox boasting a touchscreen display and Apple CarPlay and Android Auto capability. The Equinox features plenty of advanced safety equipment, from standard items such as a rearview camera and Chevy's Teen Driver reporting feature to a top-down parking camera system and lane departure warning and intervention. You'll appreciate the extra space because the 29.9 cubic feet behind the rear seats is smaller than most in this class. There's plenty of legroom for tall passengers in all outboard seats - though the panoramic sunroof reduces headroom for those in the rear - and the back seats fold flat at the pull of a lever to increase the size of the cargo area to 63.5 cubic feet. The downsizing has barely impacted the Equinox's spacious interior. Even if you don't go for the diesel option, the standard engines all deliver improved fuel economy figures compared to the previous Equinox. ![]() Chevy says the most economical of these, an optional 1.6-liter diesel engine, will achieve an impressive 40 mpg on the highway.

Taobao’s official international shipping only supports, , and Tmall. You just need to register a Taobao account to access these sites, but all of these sites or apps are only available in Chinese, if you don’t know Chinese, it can be a big challenge. This is Taobao’s second-hand marketplace, where you can find a lot of cheap stuff. Usually, things in Tmall are more expensive than in Taobao because sellers have to pay more commission to Tmall. You can think of tmall as a selected version of Taobao, It collects some of the biggest companies and brands on this site.įor example, you can find the official flagship stores of Nike, Adidas, Samsung, Apple, and so on.

Not only that, but the games on offer provide three very distinct types of Jackbox Party Pack mini-games for players to try, with one focused on drawing, another focused on trying to make other players laugh, and a third that's trivia-themed. Putting that aside, the content in The Jackbox Party Starter is still solid, and it does feature some of the most entertaining games that The Jackbox Party Pack has delivered to date. Those who are new to the series would be better off getting The Jackbox Party Pack 3 if they're interested in these particular games or simply picking another main series game at random, even if it means paying $5 or $10 more. Longtime Jackbox Party Pack players likely already have access to all these games, and so would be better off waiting for The Jackbox Party Pack 9's release later this year. The selection of games in The Jackbox Party Starter is somewhat head-scratching when considering The Jackbox Party Pack 3 exists, and it's difficult to imagine exactly who this game is for. At the time of this writing, The Jackbox Party Pack 3 retails for $24.99, while The Jackbox Party Starter is $19.99, so it seems like one would get more value from going with the older game. and Quiplash 2, as well as the original Trivia Murder Party, Guesspionage, and Fakin' It. However, it might make more sense for one to purchase The Jackbox Party Pack 3 instead, as that features both Tee K.O. The Jackbox Party Starter collects Tee K.O., Trivia Murder Party 2, and Quiplash 3 from The Jackbox Party Pack 3, The Jackbox Party 6, and The Jackbox Party Pack 7, respectively. It's meant to be an appetizer of sorts for one to decide if the Jackbox Party Pack games are something they would be interested in, but all things considered, it would likely make more sense for someone to spring for one of the full Jackbox Party Pack games instead. Instead, it packages together three popular games from previous Jackbox Party Pack collections while updating them to meet the standards of the newest entries in the franchise. The Jackbox Party Starter is not a full-fledged new entry in the Jackbox Party Pack series. The latest title from Jackbox Games is something a little different, however. Each new Jackbox Party Pack installment comes with a fresh batch of mini-games to play, with a mix of brand-new ideas and sequels to popular games from previous entries in the series. The premise is simple: every Jackbox Party Pack features five or so party games that players interact with using their phones. Every year since 2014, Jackbox Games has released a new entry in its Jackbox Party Pack party game series. ![]() ![]() This is one of the most popular anti-squirrel bird feeders available, and it’s from a brand known for being the authority on squirrel proof bird feeders. but with any of these you are sure to cut down drastically on squirrel activity at your feeders, and hopefully eliminate it completely. So for some of these you may see reviews on Amazon where customers have said “the squirrels figured it out!”. Keep in mind that even though these are “squirrel proof”, squirrels are much more clever than we give them credit for and can occasionally figure out tricks to get food from just about any bird feeder. ![]() All are popular choices and have mostly good customer reviews. On to why you probably came here, the list of the best squirrel proof bird feeders! Some of these we have personally used and some we haven’t. The top 10 best squirrel proof bird feeders They are perfectly capable of finding food naturally. I don’t have anything against squirrels personally, but I’m here to feed birds at my bird feeders, not squirrels. The squirrels still try to get some seed without much success but mostly just hang around the ground below the feeder getting the scraps that the birds are leaving. The squirrels totally destroyed it to get to the seed and the birds were lucky to just get some scraps.Īnyway, I bought a Squirrel Buster Standard (on the list below) and I am seeing many more birds at the feeder now and less squirrels. I put up a new bird feeding station on the side of my house recently and at first was just using an old non squirrel proof feeder. Maybe not every squirrel proof feeder for everyone in every situation, but for the most part they are highly effective at deterring squirrels. ![]()

Without insurance, pergolas can be damaged by storms, vandalism, or accidental slips and falls. Pergolas can be a liability if they are not covered by insurance. It is popular for indoor and outdoor use and can be used for a variety of purposes, including sheltering plants from the sun or rain, providing privacy, and providing a venue for events. In conclusion, a pergola is a structure that is typically enclosed by a roof and supported by posts. However, if you have a cheap pergola and you live in an area with mild weather, you might not need to insure it. If you have a expensive pergola and you live in an area with severe weather, it might be worth it to get insurance. Ultimately, whether or not you should insure a pergola is a decision that you’ll need to make based on your own circumstances. However, if you live in an area where the weather is mild, the chances of something happening to the pergola are lower and you might not need to insure it. If you live in an area where severe weather is common, then it might be worth insuring the pergola in case it’s damaged in a storm. However, if it’s a cheaper pergola, you might not need to insure it.Īnother thing to consider is the likelihood of something happening to the pergola. If it’s a very expensive pergola, then it might be worth insuring in case something happens to it. First, you need to think about the value of the pergola. There are a few things to keep in mind when it comes to this question. One of the things you might be wondering about is whether or not a pergola is worth insuring. When it comes to insurance, there are a lot of things to consider. Is It Worth It To Have Insurance For A Pergola? Ultimately, the decision of whether or not to insure a pergola is a personal one. For others, the cost of the premium may be too high. For some people, the peace of mind that comes with having insurance is worth the cost of the premium. When considering whether or not to insure a pergola, it is important to weigh the cost of the premium against the value of the pergola. And third, it can provide peace of mind in knowing that you are protected in case of damage. Second, it can help to cover the cost of repairs if the pergola is damaged. First, it can help to protect the investment that you have made in your pergola. There are a few different benefits of having insurance for pergolas. ![]() Similarly, business insurance may cover damage to a pergola that is located on commercial property. Homeowners insurance, for example, may cover damage to a pergola that is caused by a covered peril, such as a fire. There are a few different types of insurance that can cover pergolas. What Are Some Of The Benefits Of Having Insurance? That way, you’ll know for sure what you can and can’t file a claim for. It’s always a good idea to check with your insurance provider to see what is and isn’t covered under your policy. Additionally, if the damage is cosmetic (e.g., a few cracked tiles), it also probably won’t be covered. If the damage is caused by your own negligence (e.g., you didn’t properly maintain the pergola and it rotted), then it likely won’t be covered. So, if your pergola is damaged by a strong storm or by fire, you should be able to file a claim and get reimbursement for the repairs. ![]() Generally speaking, most insurance policies will cover damage caused by weather, fire, theft, or vandalism. It can be difficult to know what is and isn’t covered, especially when it comes to something like a pergola. When it comes to insurance, there are a lot of different factors that can come into play. That way, you can be sure you’re protected in case of any unforeseen damage. If you’re planning to build a pergola, be sure to check with your homeowners insurance agent to see if coverage is included in your policy. Some policies may exclude coverage for certain types of damage, such as rot or termite damage. While most homeowners insurance policies will cover damage to pergolas caused by severe weather, it’s important to check with your insurer to be sure. Pergolas are often used to provide shade or shelter in a garden or outdoor space. Is It Worth It To Have Insurance For A Pergola?Ī pergola is an outdoor structure typically made of wood that has a lattice of beams and crossbeams supporting a roof of rafters.What Are Some Of The Benefits Of Having Insurance?. ![]() ![]() ![]() That’s fine in a sense as you don’t have to spec into skills you might not otherwise want or need, but it also takes away a bit of the sense of your character growing and learning the smaller skills before building up to the higher ones. However, if they’re open I can spec into skills at tiers three, four, or even five without spending anything in tier two. I tend to spend my points in the Dark skill page. For instance, my Dusk Mage’s Light skill page only had a couple of points spent on the tier one skills. As long as a tier is available you can learn a skill from it. However, you don’t have to learn the skills in any particular order. As you level up, the higher tiers will become available to learn and the skills can be leveled up themselves with more skill points. For each skill page-one for each of your two main skill types and one for the relic-you have several tiers of skills, each with a skill or two to learn. I also wrote skill “trees” in quotes for a reason as they’re not really trees this time around. But this also means you might end up with a skill that will force you to use a weapon you might not otherwise want to. Thankfully I went through the game as a Dusk Mage who typically uses a Digitus so I’m good there. For instance, the Flame Destroyer relic has a skill called Giant Swings that requires the character to be using either a Great Weapon or a Digitus. Torchlight III is no different and the relic skills might require certain weapons to use. To my knowledge any weapon can be used with any class, but like similar games, certain weapons can benefit specific classes, usually through a bonus to a skill they can learn. There is a catch to the relics, though, as some skills do require certain weapons to use. Relic skills require energy to use if they’re not passive abilities, though your energy meter will recharge over time as you deal damage to enemies. Each relic has its own set of skills that you can spec into but once you choose a relic, you can’t change your mind. Each class has two skill “trees” they can put skill points into as they level up, but after choosing your class you will now choose one of five relics: Bane, Blood Drinker, Coldheart, Electrode, and Flaming Destroyer. As per typical RPGs of this nature, each class has their own skills they can use and weapons they specialize in, though Torchlight III does something a little different. Your choices this time around are Sharpshooter, Dusk Mage, Forged, and Railmaster. You begin by choosing which class you’d like to play. In Torchlight III the Netherim are once again wreaking havoc throughout Novastraia and it’s up to you to traverse Novastraia and defeat the Netherim. (For the record, I did not play the Early Access version.) Will my eagerness to take on the Netherim persist throughout my time with the game, or are we getting to the point where the series is basically using a copy-and-paste formula? Let’s take a look at Torchlight III on the Xbox One. I put quite a few hours into both games and when I saw that Torchlight III was coming out of Early Access, I was eager to check it out for review. The same went for its sequel, Torchlight II. Since at the time a Diablo III seemed farfetched, Torchlight was a great alternative and I enjoyed it a lot more than I originally though I would. ![]() ![]() When the original Torchlight launched in 2009, a friend and I checked it out as it resembled Diablo II in a lot of ways, and Diablo II was my favorite PC game for many years. ![]() |
