I've got some of your B Am eggs in my incubator right now. I was able to place a half doz and currently four are developing. One stopped developing about day 10, and one was clear. 

Excited to see what we end up with. They should be hatching in the next 3 or 4 days. 

These are the 2 Lavender Orps I got at the swap, I just love this color.

I just put 12 eggs that CL gave me from the spring swap into lockdown, along with a few BLRW that I'd ordered...

Just posting my hatching results from all the eggs that came home from the swap with me. 

I originally set 28 eggs and ended up with 15 that made it

Cloverleaf Farm 4/6 (Salmon Faverolles)

Zanna 3/5 (Delaware - included a small pullet egg which finally hatched in a big hurry this morning!)

Chicken Rustler 3/6 (Bantam Ameraucanas, all black)

Dancing Hen 0/2 (Orp)

Red Rooster Farm eggs hatched for Zoomummzy 3/6 (booted Seramas)

My own Seramas 2/2 

For my first time using an incubator (on loan from Laura), I feel pretty accomplished!

And addicted, did I mention that part???

Congrats!  Yay, chicks!!!!

Pics???

OK for anybody looking to build an incubator or install a fan in a still air LISTEN UP ! ! ! DO NOT spend too much on a fan! I just scrapped a Wolfe tanning bed. In it was 8 yes eight nice 115 VAC fans. PERFECT for bators. They are about 4" square and 1 1/2" +/- thick. They will be cheap to chicken buddies.

Can't blame it all on the rooster! Only one was clear, we had a quitter earlier in the month, and then we lost a slow poke at the end who just gave up on trying to get out of its egg 

Anyway, my daughter is stoked, the three Ameraucanas were claimed by her. Two are healthy, the third is a bit delayed, had to assist it during hatch. 

I have a little album up on my FB page if you can get to it... facebook.com/backacherfarm
