I'll join in, I'll probly be putting my eggs in this coming evening once I'm certain my temp is holding.

I'll be putting in BLRW, Ameraucanas, bantam Cochin and OEGB eggs, I have 16 in total.

On Saturday I'll be putting in a couple dozen coturnix quail eggs.

I'm looking to swap Coturnix eggs for turkey eggs.

Cool! Thanks for joining us!
I'll be doing a dry hatch... 35-45% humidity through incubation and 60% at lockdown. Seems to work for me.
What type of humidity will you be doing?

I usually do the same, I'm calibrating my hygrometer right now.

Incubator

Temp Looks pretty good.

good looking setup! Is that home made? I always wanted to try home making one. But I'm not talented enough.. wink.png
Now to bring my big ole bator in the house and get it going... Its to cold in the garage to incubate.


Anybody else setting soon?

I just picked up 6 Ameracauna eggs and 1 Olive Egger egg from the post office celebrate.gif I am currently in the process of constructing a really crappy homemade incubator :/ (Any advice would be greatly appreciated)  I am hoping to set them by tonight or tomorrow morning.  This is my first hatching experience!  I am so excited!
