The first batch will be eggs from the mixed flock, since the Blue Australorps are mostly still pullets. Black Langshan cockerel over assorted ladies.
That's the most secure place possible. Nowhere to move it to.
My cats are *generally* good about not randomly shoving things off shelves onto the floor. But I'm sure they could not possibly resist the lure of an intriguing machine that rolls eggs and later peeps.
After discussing all the possible options, considering the needs of the family, the setup of our house, and the presence of the cats, we decided to put the incubator in the laundry room. But it's a little cooler in there and there is a door where we have to take the cat litter out.
