i have 5 incubators all at different temps

Women, women, women they just dont understand that when it comes to feeding times, any object or implment will do.
I have actually crackered the blender (which was not cheap either), whilst chopping up chicken carcases. She was not impressed, but her face was a picture when I asked if I could use the meat hammer or the granite mortar & pestel, that just sits on the work surface.
