INCUBATING w/FRIENDS! w/Sally Sunshine Shipped Eggs No problem!

[Jessimom]

I bought 3 of them, intending to use them as nest boxes. Not only will they not fit where I wanted to use them, but with only 4" sides they won't contain chicks for very long. Plenty enough ventilation, though; designed like 1"x2" welded wire. May have a different style where you are.

I bought baskets at the dollar store. It had a solid bottom, so I drilled ventilation holes. The sides were latticed. I used 2 baskets. We used hardware cloth tented over the basket on 2, and left 2 open sections open. We staggered, tent, open, tent, open. Everybody stayed in their own space. It took a few attempts to get the hoop low enough to allow us to close the incubator. The fans have a cover, so the wire didn't affect them.

Maybe he goes after the roos when you ain't watching as well

That is very true. But all my silkies that have hatched from our grey/black silkie roos and white hens have been silver, grey, brown or black as babies. I just had a YELLOW one hatch. So, I'm thinking the white roo tagged at least 1 white hen. But it could have been a cross between my EE roo, and my BO hen.

You can't go invisible unless you upgrade to a PPM.
Ooooh!!! Now, I just might do that!

I wonder when this Bryan dude is gonna say sorry for being mad?

I can't either, GFM isn't as cool as PPM.
Not true

Silkies are so broody even my rooster sits on a nest sometimes!!

Okay, that is ANNOYING!!!
