How are everyones' hatches going?

Mrs. Mucket : What should you see when candling at Day 18? I want to give my broody some eggs that look viable and keep the rest in the incubator. Last time I looked some were just solid dark with an air cell at the end. These are light brown eggs...

Quote: Oh, thank you!

Quote: I'm getting paid $250 for raising the chicks. Really, I don't know if I want Orps. I might not have room. The Lavs are from bargain. I asked her and she said that the males were 100% English import, and the hens had some in them. Kind of confusing. Really? Hmmmm, there are only 2...

Quote: Sounds like alot of work to raise that many chicks for a month for someone else. I would definitely require a substantial amount for that alone. I see you plan to have Imported English Orps. Lavender? Where or where did you find Lavender imports? I'm getting paid $250 for raising the...

Alas, I have two hova 1588's in the mail. One I paid for, one I got for free- It was payed by some folks who I'm hatching and raising chicks to 4 weeks old for. I can't wait! I'll be setting 100 eggs- 50 stuffed in each, and hand turning one bator (block method). After this is done, than I'll...

Quote: Exciting! CRYSTALCREEK has so many people on here getting eggs from him/her (?). I sent him/her (?) a PM about the project lav eggs.

Quote: This is for all models. You can include the 1602 in this one. This isn't just for the 1588, it's for all of them.

I can't believe that March is drawing to an end soon. I can't wait till April... Hatching time! That means BBS and project lav Ameraucanas, Wheaten Marans and assorted Silkies. Oh, and Blue/Lav Orps. Then I hope to get female BR chicks. Maybe more Delawares sometime this year. Two or three is...

Mrs. Fluffy Puffy : Quote: I just put 13 Blue Orpington eggs into the incubator and mine were tan or beige. Are you sure? Yes, like I said these are "Test" eggs, she bred them to lay Olive Green eggs. She wants BYC'ers to test them out for her and, she also wants to know how many of the...
