    That is what I am hoping. The incubator is developing my mutt eggs right on track so soon we will get to hatch the good ones. I have a string of rabbit hutches I am about to convert into small chicken tractors for the young birds, I think. I just can't wait to get the first few RC hatches...

    Ohh I think I misread your question about the hatching. Yes, I incubate and hatch in the same incubator. To keep the birds separate in these heritage hatches, I am going to cage the eggs when I go into lock down. That way the chicks can't get mixed up. :-)

    The electric netting was something I wanted to try. But it needs to run on solar. I cannot seem to find enough people with personal experience running a solar netting fence to decide whether or not to invest in it.
