I'm positive I'll be setting. I can't seem to stop! Especially now I think I have figured out my bad hatch reasons!

awesome Kathy!!
 
I'll hopefully join- I just need to try and convince the family that we do NEED some more poultry and get hold of some duck or Polish eggs....
Of course you NEED more poultry! Who doesn't?

Well I'm going to let One of My year old sit . She has been sitting on 2 Wood Eggs for 4 days . She don't get off to Eat when I take Fresh Vegetables to Them . I have a place Ready and will Move Her Tonight. She will be sitting on 12 of My Special Southern Mix. Don't Know Who the Parents are. I have several Pure Breeds . Roscoe is 100% Easter Egger and TJ is the Son of Roscoe and His Mom is a Naked-Neck . G-Kids want a Naked -Neck with Polish Hair. LOL.. Can't wait to See What We get.

I'm in. And already 9 pages behind. Haha.
I think this is the one that will be my best hatching experience. My system is much better organized now and DH hasn't gotten angry with me about the expense and crazy incubator ideas. Maybe by April I'll have my Mad Chicken Lab all set up in the barn.
That's the spirit! Need pics of the Mad Chicken Lab!
 
FIRST CONTEST IS OPEN FOR FUN!!

NN silkies jealous!! please show us the turner!!


Here's the cut down turner. I hatched with only it last time. This time I've added the two cut off trays on the right by drilling holes in the coolerbator walls so they swing independently. I'm hoping to add baling wire through the lid and use it to do a manual turning a few times a day. Will work out the details of that tomorrow. Still lost two eggs per tray due to width of the coolerbator but gained ten more spots. 38 egg spaces now.
