Valentine's Day 1st Annual Hatch Along

[misfitmorgan]

I have a lead on eggs for the HAL, and I can pick them up without shipping!

But I will likely be setting them earlier in the week than the official set day. Hope I can still join along even though I won't be on the same date.

I think I might be setting a day or two early. I have some hens whose eggs tend to take a bit longer to hatch.

Your both still welcome even if your hatch date falls a couples days before or after. Generally end up with chicks that hatch late or early anyhow. i dont think i will be hatching at all for this HAL because we might be moving and i cant have eggs in the bator for the 4.5hr trip. i should know by next week though so still time to find eggs if i can do it.

Chicken eggs Jan 24th
Muscovy duck eggs January 10th
Coturnix Quail eggs Jan 27th
Goose eggs Jan 14th

Thank goodness we've been selling most. We'd be overrun of not. Each month we've had a hatch, 1/2 goes to bank 1/2 goes towards more food
