I’m going to do a hatch! I’m collecting my own eggs for the first time ever, and was wondering about the sizes. I’ve got some red hyline layers that are 1 1/2 years old laying 70-100g eggs, I’m keeping the best of the 70-80g ones. My Marans has only been laying for 2 1/2 months, but I really want to hatch some of her and my other new layers eggs too. Is 58g way too small? How about with smaller breeds like my Isbars and Sapphires? Is there a minimum size? And are the big eggs too big? Also, what if I accidentally wetted an egg... is it no longer good for hatching? I’m getting 4-5 “good” clean eggs from the older girls a day, how long can I store/collect them for?
Thanks!
Thanks!
