Hey hatchamaniacs, I just set a styrobator full of shipped eggs. Lavender Orps, BCM, and sizzles. They are settling and I am going to plug them in tonight. Anyone want to hatch along? Or just tell me what chickens Santa is bringing you! I ordered chicks too. I am WAY chicken crazy! DH bought me a lap top for Christmas so i can enjoy BYC faster on wifi!

Congrats on the laptop! I think I had a life before I got mine...I don't remember! I am dying to hatch. DYING! Really trying to keep my promise to DH to not brood chicks in the house this winter. I need a hatching and baby chick fix, like you wouldn't believe!

Take lots of pics to share your beauties when they arrive and hatch!

Hi! Yep, we just put some of our own eggs in the oven two days ago so we will be expecting some babies a few days before Christmas. Exciting!

We have RI's, New Hampshires and Delawares.
 
I'm in...and neck deep. Seramas hatching today (approx 13 - 11 out so far - from Castle Delight); French Blue Marans and Silver sussex hatching next week (Locust Farms), Sultans hatching week after, and on the 21st I'm hoping for a gaggle of Swedish Flower hens (Locust Farms) to hatch as well. I need an intervention. Seriously. (Yes, I have 3 incubators and 3 brooders) What to do with all these fuzzies...! Anyone in the Bay Area wanting some awesome (and will be vaccinated) chickens?!?
 
I just set 2 eggs from our girls today. Not sure if they are fertile. One looks like a pullet egg too. But with some luck we'll hve 2 new hatchlings just before Dec 25th!
 
My incubator is taking a vacation until after the holidays, then DH wants to run a batch of Pheasants through. I guess the incubator will have to go into the house as we will be having company so I have to take it out of our guest apartment. I wonder if he will notice me slipping in some chicken eggs...

This is from our last Peasant hatch.
