 Good question...i did put some 2 week olds in with 3 week olds and then added more pine shaving right away ... they all were so freaked from that (dont know why) they all seemd to not be too bad. 2 are roos for sure  and forward...and one is 3 days older than the others but they really didnt pick on them much at all. Stayed in their own  groups eyeing each other  but a couple days  seemed ok havent put the smallest in yet  week olds...Afraid they will get picked on... too little..

I wanted to set some more, but we are going to the Talladega race, first part of October.  I don't want to leave the incubator unattended for that long.

 

I was so hoping to try and get a Brahma roo before winter.

 

Oh well.

1 quarter horse, 1 tuxedo cat, 1 siberian hamsters, 3 dogs, 1 hermit crab, 7 freshwater fish, 5 Brahma chickens, 2 showgirl chickens, 9 silkies, 7production chickens, 12 to be determined bantam chicks, 2 pekin ducks and 1 swedish duck....I should hatch a partridge for the pear tree to round it off.

Have fun at the race!!   I went to Talladega in 2007 it was great.  And the incubator will be there when you get back.

Only two of my 10 White Ameraucana eggs hatched, and one died today :(  We are naming the only white chickie Uno.

 

17 out of 20 Blue Splash/Wheaten Ameraucanas hatched, and one is not doing well. I don't think he will make it :(  . The rest are thriving and their feathers are starting to come in, so cute!
 

Jakk... Homeschooling mom of four kids, two dogs, three cats, 6 Buff Orpingtons hatched on Christmas Day, 16 Hatchery Choice Pullets, 6 TSC Red Pullets all hatched on 2/22, 8 babes hatched 3/21, 9 babies hatched on May 11th. Sixteen Easter Eggers hatched Sept 1, two White Ameraucana hatched Sept 5th...and trying to resist the urge to fill the incubator!
