Temps are running solid, but I'm going to attempt my first ever dry hatch. I have four duck eggs in the 'bator.

 

Well, here's my total - 

 

4 Muscovy eggs

1 Random egg from the yard Skylar wanted me to hatch

10 Hatch - hopefully at least 5 make it to lock down because they're sold!

Hi I'll join you, I just set 10 buff laced brahma eggs this morning!

Raising my multi-variety Brahma flock from scratch.  I have hatched out all but my 4 original lite hens.  I have 5 Buff Laced, 2 Gold Laced (and 5 eggs in the bater) 2 Silver Laced (1 egg in the bater), 3 Dark chicks, so sweet and 2 buffs. I've sold a few extras and the new owners just love them.

Such a wide hatch we have going on here! Can't wait to see everyone's pictures! I had a bad hatch my last time out due to humidity issues... But hopefully this time we will have better luck.

Can I join in?  I set 21 Black Copper Marans eggs and 6 mix breed(a Black Copper Roo is the daddy) eggs last night at 11PM.  I'm looking forward to this hatch!   I've wanted Marans for a long time and this is my second time incubating.  My last hatch I got 3 sweet Indian Runner Duck babies - they are still in the brooder.  Good Luck everyone!!!

I actually dont know anything else about them except that the person I got the eggs from to hatch hasnt been able to hatch any of the pheasnt eggs so far but he keeps trying . He isnt shure if the male has the hang of things or what. I havent been able to candle these eggs there way to dark so I have no idea how Im gonna tell if there is anything growing in them at day 7-14 or so when I will candle them all to see how there doing. I will ask him the next time I think about it if he knows what breeds he has of what. =) Im hopeing and praying that these pheasnt eggs hatch other wise we might need to get him another male O.o o.O
