My mini advanced just stopped and it's done. I had 7 fertile eggs in it.
Now I have a broody hen who was sitting already for over a week on 3 eggs. I put the other 7 also under her but how big is the chance the hatch??

This morning I introduced an egg swap at the dutch forum. Just to see if there would be some interest in it.... apparently a big mistake to even think about it.....
Because you can't choose a specific breed and it cost's to much money to raise babychicks, and one breeder doesn't want eggs from...
I've tried the search function but could not find the answer. It's time prepare the mini incubator but I was wondering how many times you set the turning?
