I only eat the good stuff. Shin Ramen from Korea. Runs between 50 cents and a dollar a pack but it's a lot better than the standard Top Ramen. Usually add and egg, some cheese and leftover ribeye or something to it.
I feed them to the chickens, quail and ducks and then eat them and their eggs. 
I seriously need to get an incubator.

Oh sweet Jesus!! Yes that one !! Could go the rest of my life without that song ever being played again !!Lol, Des... per... ado...
Make Grumpy make ya one !! They are pretty simple!!
Grumpy would rather DIE than help me with anything like that! Lol I've kinda been toying with the idea of building one. Any good links you trust??
Annie it was 1984 when I built the incubator and I found the instructions in the library!! My Mom took it with her to Houma around 91 and gave it to a friend , lost track after that!! I wish I could remember the name of the book and might still wake up at 2am and remember it , if I do I will let you know!!
Are libraries still a thing LOL!!
Ok if it comes to you let me know. I'm gonna fire up Google and see what I can come up with.
Motherearthnews.com has a few different designs. Just type "incubator" in the search. This is a magazine that I've subscribed to for many years.
I built one in the early '80s from an old console TV case. Made a plywood door, and used the round glass that used to be in front of picture tubes for a window so we could watch the eggs.
I looked at incubators in the Sears Farm catalog, and bought a double wafer thermostat for one of those. I used two 150w bulbs for the heat, and added a dimmer switch so that when the thermostat switched off, they would stay dimly lit so we could still see inside.
Made a box/drawer with a screen bottom for the eggs, and we'd mark 'em with an X (used a pencil) so we could turn them daily. Put a small pan of water under the drawer at the back to provide humidity.
We hatched chickens, ducks, and a couple turkeys (which are some of the dumbest creatures on the planet btw) in it. Accumulated almost 40 ducks once that we had hatched in that thing...
