Push it in the closet & lock the door...LOL

 

I'm going to the school next week to see if my kids' teachers would each like to do some hatching in the classroom. Maybe a couple of the other teachers would like to join them. Thinking if I give 3-4 of my bators to the school to use, it will keep me from FILLING them constantly. I can even give the classes eggs to incubate & they can return any chicks the kids don't take home with them...LOL

It will not go through a door to get to a closet I wish I had closets that big it is about 3 feet wide x 4.5 feet long by 4.5 feet tall.

  then you would have to use it since you let other BORROW you bators so you could still hatch   if you come home with chicks from your egg, you hatched   That is kinda like saying I did go to my usual drinking hole so I didn't drink.

I need it I have SLW and BLRW's coming and I need some lavs.

 I never said ALL of my bators were going to the school  Only 2-4 of the 5. Hafta keep 1-2 for me...LOL Believe it or not, I actually only have 4 with eggs in them right now & 1 of those only has 2 eggs in it. That's the bator I use as a hatcher. The other 3 bators actually have room for MORE eggs than what's in them at the moment. PLUS, there are 13 peafowl eggs in there too. So you know those take up a lot of room. I have nowhere NEAR the 400+ eggs cooking that I did last month...LOL

I have keets popping like popcorn they are not due for DAYS LOL.  but the MOST exciting... I have a pip in the SLW eggs from Foley's birds 2 of 3 made it to lockdown and both looked good.  I have more due in a week I think 4 were growing when I last looked.

They did mine with 5 bators full of eggs running & never even asked what was in them.

the inspector told me all my birds on property had to be four months before he'd come do blood work and since none of my eggs came from a inspected farm the bators had to be empty. Soooooo I need to get npip eggs.didn't think about that.

My eggs are NPIP...lol How many ya want 

Plus, all they did was test any of my birds that WERE over 14 weeks at the time of testing. They didn't even check chicks or eggs.
