Incubators and Mushrooms

I'd hate to enumerate the number of ideas, seeds, crops, machines, and even people we've tried to make successful and come up with loss.We tried quail production three times, twice to get wiped out by bird flu. Now, it's working! But I just read of a new flu strain. These birds are supposed to be resistant. Time will tell.[nggallery id=736]Not to keep all our eggs in one basket (no pun intended) we've learned how to grow mushrooms in artificial steamed logs made of saw dust, wood chips, spores, various sundry and other interesting ingredients.After a few miserable lessons from my least favorite teacher, Miss Failure, it is working very well.  I can't think of anything we've done that worked great the first time; though there's got to be one I'm forgetting somewhere!?![nggallery id=747]
