Just found this thread so I hope it ok that I join! On 8-15 I set 12 olive Egger eggs, 7 white leghorn, and 39 eggs from papas poultry (mostly fancy orpingtons, a few partridge brahamas, and a few legbars). I'm super excited and hope they hatch!! Everything except the white leg horns spent 5 days in my little giant before my brinseas came in.

Here's a pic of my set up. The white leghorns are in the little giant and everything else are In The brinseas. This is my first time using the octagon Eco 20's so I hope they live up to the hype.

Love your Columbian Wyandotte in your avatar.

Congrats on getting the eggs sorry about the cracked one hope it makes it good luck. Where'd you get the buff Laced wyandotte eggs? Would love a hen of those.

Buff laced Wynadottes are just ebay eggs all of my eggs are ebay eggs very cheap eggs compared to "August hatch" eggs

Those should be beautiful birds. They are very popular in England...there are lovely pictures on the Columbian Wyandotte page on Facebook.


I'm subscribing to this HAL thread. I haven't done so in a long time and am interested in what you are hatching.
I have two Hovabators with eggs that will hatch in September. I also use another Hovabator as a hatcher. Both incubators have auto egg turners and are dry incubation. The hatcher has a digital thermometer/humidy gauge and humidity is held at 60%.

Set 8/11 due 9/1 are 14 Columbian Wyandotte, White Wyandotte and 2 Bantam.
Set 8/17 due 9/2 are 33 Corturnix quail. These are hard to candle because of the blue inner she'll and the heavily spotted outer shell. Usually know what is developing on day 18 when they go to the hatcher.
Set 8/18 due 9/7 are 24 eggs from Columbian and White Wyandotte as well as some Delaware Bantam and OEGB. Also added 4 developing eggs found behind the refrigerator in the barn. Saw a black snake in the barn that day and thought the eggs would have a better chance in the incubator! These will be layer mixes.

Well I snapped a pic of my loaded old incubator!! Center is due Friday - Mon, bottoms are ready 2 weeks & the top I just put in yesterday!
I think I may have a chicken hoarding problem!! Why is this incubator so big!!!

 

[WVduckchick]

Thank you. Whatever it was (I'm clearly clueless) fell off. But it's umbilical stump looks kind of puffy and red (not bloody). I think it'll be ok.

If you have some around, I always put Neosporin on my chicks cord area anyway..just the plain, not the kind with the pain relief in it.

My first purebred Silver Grey Dorking! I'm beyond excited. Hatched at 4am this morning. 5 more eggs left in the incubator. It's only day 18 though.

So adorable! My chick is hatching also!
