    I WANT those eggs because!!!! FREE eggs contest... GA

    I want those eggs because... I love to watch my children (13, 11 and 3) press their noses to the incubator window and watch the eggs hatching, love on the little chickies, and talk to the adults. Who knew chickens could be so much fun! I also would like these eggs because we have no pure...

    Thank you for your responses. The thing I wanted to ask about was the damaged combs? Would this have been from weather exposure? Thanks, Lori

    Of the eggs that I just had hatch one of them took about 14 hours from the first crack I saw, one took about 8 hours, and one had his first crack yesterday morning when I got up at 7AM and is still working to get out. I know it is hard, but just find something to do to keep yourself busy...

    Chick vs. egg question - Day 22, one chick out

    I have made a lot of mistakes with this (my first) hatch. I currently have one chick out in a very full incubator. I know I'm not supposed to open the incubator, because I have 2 others pipped and other in various stages of incubation. Concerns: 1. I know he needs to dry and fluff, but there...
