    CANDLED EGG PICS day 1-17

    This is perfect for my classroom. My 2 class of 8th graders are hatching out 46 eggs. We weighed them, measured them, then determined the density before putting them intheincubator on March 5th.

    How many is too many?

    Henrietta hatched 13 very cute chicks. All are doing well. She is an excellent mom. This is the first time I have had a hen raise chicks. I think I am more nervous than her. They are in a chicken tractor. Thank you for asking. I am trying to picture I took on my iPad.

    what is the approx hatch rate on shipped eggs

    I have hatched several shipped eggs. Average is less than non-shipped eggs but it really depends on who you buy them from, how far they travel,ect.
