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.
Smoking the Brisket: Preheat Smoker Grill to 170 degrees F. Cooking at a low temperature will make the wood smoke more. 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.ook the brisket to an internal temperature of 200 degrees F. and maintain this temperature in the meat for several hours while cooking. This low heat will help break down the tissues in the meat to tenderize while cooking. Not all briskets are created equally, so the cooking time will vary.
