I'm waiting on my new incubator and plan on using it as soon as it arrives, so I will join you for my first incubation experience. woot.gif

 

I'm using eggs from my backyard flock, just a random mix. 

Stephanie in VA  3 kids, 2 dogs, 3 cats, and 14 chickens- hens: 2 leghorns, 2 golden comets,         2 australorps, 2 barred rocks, 1 NH Red, 1 LF buff brahma. Roosters: LF light brahma, 2 bantam cochins (1 black/multi colored frizzle, and one buff/red colored) blue orpington. My neighbors RIR rooster has recently moved in. I guess he is staying too

Im hoping I'll have my eggs by then, if not by the 5th. I ordered 12 Belgian D'uccle Mille Fleur eggs and 6 Black Copper Maran eggs from ebay, so here's to hoping they get here in one piece fl.giffl.giffl.giffl.gif

I am setting Silkies.  Got them special for my daughter because the 2 white silkies that she got as an early Easter present were killed by something.  We lost 12 birds that day....all hand raised.  So Sad.  So I am getting AWESOME eggs, to try again and maybe get a few for my daughter to show.  I get them in the mail tomorrow...Do they need to rest before I set them?
