    The 5th Annual BYC Easter Hatch-a-long!

    7 of 12 have hatched! 2 eggs have pips and are still working at it, and 3 eggs remain a mystery.

    FlySammyJ, All I have are mutt crosses. Otherwise I would spot you some eggs! Next year I should have both amaracaunas and Marans as well as welsummers and crested cream Legbars. Sadly they are babies now. Have fun picking from shiptons or tractor supply!

    I am setting 12 barnyard mixed eggs today. I stopped at 12 only because my bator is full from a few set last week... Ahem. Couldn't wait! The shipped eggs came early. Hoping for some Millie fleur Cochins a week before the big hatch day!!! Happy happy Dance. Do I need to post a picture???

    5th Annual BYC New Year's Day 2014 Hatch-A-Long

    Thanks for sharing this. I did ask about humidity and wood stoves. I tried a hatch with shipped eggs in November and didn't have great success so I was wondering if my humidity was too low. I did have trouble keeping it high enough during lock down. I blame the wood stove! Lol. Anyway I...

    Happy New Year! I sure am enjoying all the new chicky pics :) Can you tell I'm living vicariously through you all today! I can't wait for spring!!! We got a nice 6" dumped on us last night. Snow is such a blessing. If I repeat that over and over will spring come sooner???

    Hey PrairieRidge I am north of billings, that makes us neighbors! I wish I had room for some of your extras. As it is I need remake some culling choices too. Darn chicken math! It's great to meet others in the area.

    I finally got water on mine too and hope that will help. I will be interested in how your hatch goes. Are you hatching local or shipped eggs?

    5th Annual BYC New Year's Day 2014 Hatch-A-Long

    Is anyone trying a hatch in a house with a wood burning stove? I tried some eggs in Oct with a nov 1st hatch day and found it very difficult to keep my humidity up. The eggs were pretty light, at least 15% weight lost, and only 4 of 10 hatched. Just wanting any thoughts. I am hoping to try again...

    That's awesome! I have my timer and lights out, just haven't had the time to go hang them. Such great ideas here. I have some wheat sprouting for the girls too. Can't wait to see their happy dance when they see green!

    Wow I am impressed! That's a big bunch of chicks. I would have gotten tired of them in the basement too. I would love some hatching tips:) my hatch this fall was with shipped eggs, kinda a failure. I had trouble with humidity. I think wood burning stoves make things way too dry inside our house...

    Anyone doing the New Year's Day hatch? I really would like to, but after this week the thought of brooding chicks through January is a bit daunting. I'm in for valentines day tho!
