The eggs will always hatch in the order they were laid. Usually after 18 days, the first fertile egg to be laid will get hatched and thereafter one egg will hatch every other day. Do not get alarmed if you see the mother pushing the chick to one side of the nestbox. This is done some times by the female parakeet. It is done to facilitate the hatching of the remaining eggs.
With the brisket prepared you need to get the smoker ready. You will want a fire of about 200 degrees F to 230 degrees F (95 degrees C. to 110 degrees C). At this temperature, you can expect the cooking time to be about 1 1/2 hours per pound.
Place the brisket (in roasting pan) in the pre-heated smoker and close the smoker lid. Smoke the brisket for 1 hour for every pound of meat or smoke overnight. As the smoke is penetrating the brisket meat during the smoking phase, it will build up a pink smoke ring around the outer edges of the brisket.tep 2 - Tenderize the meat: You can soak the brisket in a marinade or use a mix of spices to rub into the brisket to help tenderize the meat. With either method, it is recommended to let the brisket sit in a marinade or rub overnight, in the refrigerator, to tenderize.
